      Engine power completely cut in a busy intersection.
      Dodged a few cars, ended up in a ditch on the other side of the street:


      Gas tank was over half full, but we tried filling it anyway, to no avail.
      Engine will turn over but refuses to ignite. Waited two hours for a tow to my dad's repair shop, hopefully I'll find out what's wrong with it Monday.

                  the exact same thing happened to me a few months back...turned out to be the crank position sensor. i wouldnt start there, but its something i would check if the easy stuff doesnt fix it.
