    Help me please. Car starts but dies after maybe 7seconds

    so i didd a full tune up besides adjusting the valves, i did ignition coil, cap and rotor, plugs, wires, fuel filter, and my car started to hesitate between 2-3k rpms, then the other night i stopped at a light when it turned green i started movin and then boom check engine light came on and car was barely movin it turned off and i had to push it off to the side. I got it back home with a few straps and a tow from a friend lol. so the car will start but only stays on for maybe 7-10 seconds before the rpms drop and car boggs out. Any suggestions i am about to do a fuel pressure test. ive gotten suggestions about the crank position sensor and maybe the afm?

    You need to find out if it's a spark, air delivery, or fuel delivery problem. Check the AFM making sure it's connected.

    Have you checked the fuel pump to make sure it's operating properly?
