ONCE I GOT TO A STOP I LOOK DOWN AND MY ETS LIGHT WAS ON WELL I JUST THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS ON BECAUSE I WAS LOW OF GAS. SO I WAIT LATER TO GET GAS AND THAT WAS NOT THE CASE I PUT GAS IN THE CAR AND TRY TO START IT IT STARTED FOR A QUICK SECOND I HEARD IT GOING TO DIE SO I QUICKLY PUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS AND IT DIED ALL TOGETHER .
