87 Cavalier doesn't want to start.

Hello.

I am having trouble with my cavalier. The day before yesterday I was leaving work when my car sputtered, the check engine light flashed a few times, then died out. I got a ride home, then the next day I went back and check the battery, the fuses and all the standard stuff. I don't know what i did but just before I was about to say fuck it and give up I tried starting it once more and it started. I got it home and let sit in the drive way for about half hour. then I went out to go put some gas in it and when I started to back out the same problem happened. it sputtered then died out.

The funny thing is, though, that the check engine light does not come on when I turn the key on. all the other lights come on but not that one. I could usually hear the fuel pump engage when I would turn the key on but not anymore. also it does turn over and there is enough gas in there for it to start as well.


I really appreciate any help, this is driving my crazy.

Thanks.
