Whats up ...my daily drive 93 galant stop working yesterday while i was driving, and it just shut off out of nowhere. Today i replace some parts like distributor and plugs...it starts for 3 secs and dies off,but if i hit the gas alil it stays on for alil longer.Basically my question is, would the car start if the coil pack is bad? I just dont want to waste too much money to fix this little problem esp since i rather the money goto my s13 project..lol.
So if you guys got ne suggestions lmk
Thanks

check fuel pump... a friend had the exact same problems when his pump was on the way out.
try takin a look at the plugs and see if you are lean.

UPDATE:
The car starts now...but the engine shakes reallllly bad and lumpy..and dies out after 1minute...and also when i step on the gas one of the belts is skreeeches bad...
this is very wierd....need some more suggestions, can it still be a bad fuel pump?
