Deffinetly need to remove the tank, probably a bad fuel level sender on the pump and a faulty check valve on the tank causing the pump to shut off to soon.

My dodge stratus will turn over but won't start thought it maybe the coil pack and it not getting spark but I've changed that out idk what else it is.. When it stopped working we were driving on the freeway and the car just shut off.. Its been sitting ever since and that was about a year ago.. Its a good car and really want to get it running again? Any answers?
