ok so maybe some of you can help, i recently replaced my fuel pump and it did great, however i was recently experiencing some winding noises coming from under my car to my knowledge it was under the seats. ok well the car started to sputter and then when i went to engage with the gas she would just die and not turn over. I went out and bought another denzo fuel pump, with the pump filter and the fuel filter, changed the spark plugs, - bought a new distributor like a month ago (the same time i bought the first fuel pump). so i started yesterday hearing the sputtering again but only from 1st to 2nd gear then she would pick up like crazy... last night i drove her to the store only 3 blocks away and she would not stay on, no matter how many time i would try to turn her over the minute i would give her a lil gas she would die...... need sugguestions please, thanks

So it starts and idles? But dies when you give it gas? Could be a bad fuel pump relay, though I seriously doubt it. I'd look into the fuel pressure regulator and the throttle position sensor. Where do you buy your gas? Do you have one station you prefer or just anywhere? It sounds like bad fuel to me.
