03 Cavalier LS won't start

My Cavalier won't start. When I try to start it, it sounds like it wants to start, but then it stalls. I think its something with the fuel line or filter. I looked at the air filter and its clean. It has 46,000 miles on it and hasn't had a tune up yet. However, I have been taking care of it. Any suggestions please?

I would say to redo your fuel filter, spark plugs and air filter. Should run like a champ after that. My 04 is up to almost 50 and I had alot of stalling out problems and did those three things and its like new again.

Nope, shes an 04. My dealer no longer recognizes it as such but it still is.

Because if you stick mine next to what it used to be it looks nothing like it. I run a construction company so I do alot of driving all over the state. I drive well over 150+ miles a day.

Nope, all I ever have left is stock stuff Ive replaced and being in a car club people tend to snatch even that stuff up rather quick. Never used to be too into the whole club thing but being part of a j-body club has worked out for the better as far as parts and help goes doing projects and such.
