30 years master technition that can lead you in the right direction. If it just flat died on you I would check all fuses first and if you have the little black book in the glove box it will show you what to look for. If all fuses are good then probably a crankshaft position sensor or a camshaft position sensor went bad. A scant tool to access the onboard data port 2 will allow you to see what the computers have to say. Like engine codes. They store info when things go haywire. These are the first things I'd check at my work if your vehicle had been towed in .
