i was making a trip and when i got off the interstate the car stalled at a caution light and wont start. the battery and alternator are fine bc the lights/windsheild wipers still function.....any ideas or suggestions?

Welcome to AF.

We are going to need some info on it.

Got gas in it? :rofl:
As in no start does the starter turn it over good?
Or just no start?
If cranks good and no start.
Check for spark to all plugs.
Check fuel pressure for up to par.
Post back what you find there.

What year engine and make and modle?

Any check lights on before it quit?

ha thanks
its a 91 chevy s-10 v6 4.3 litre
single cab, bout 350,000 miles on it but has had new motor put in around 180,000. ive only had it for about 2 months now and havent really had any problems. i bout a new air filter, new spark plugs, new radiator hose.

yeah theres gas in it....im hopeing its not the fuel pump bc i just put 20 bucks in it about 10 mins before.

anyway im going to have it towed tommorow back to my home and im not able to check the spark plugs but there was a weird drop in oil pressure when idling? i checked the oil on it daily to make sure it had some in it and didnt need more. oil looked good when checking the dipstick. ill update my post tommorow after i make it home and get a good look at whats going on. it was a rainy crappy day and it was at night so didnt get a good look.

Confirm good fuel pressure and good hot blue spark to all plugs.
Post back what you find.
Good Luck

I would really suspect the fuel puump and I swear that by Murphy's law that a fuel pump never fails while there is less than 1/2 a tank of gas since it is a PITA to get the tank down when it is atleast 1/2 full.

This could be a possibility but without proper testing we cannot give a definite answer as with these symptoms there could be a number of things that could cause a no start. I could go on with what could be the culprit but you must do the tests that mt suggested first. 1 check for good blue spark 2 check fuel pressure and then well go from there.
