It sounds like you could have a defective inertia switch. Check if it has a white paint splotch on it. If it doesn't than you should replace it, the recall removed them and replaced them with the paint mark. If that doesn't fix your problem than you will have to narrow it down to either the electrical or fuel system. Keep a can of starting fluid (ether) with you. If it dies again squirt a TINY amount into the intake. If it sputters and runs a little than you know it is a fuel problem. If it won't pop at all than it is ignition. During cranking the fuel pump does not run constantly, it will run and stop. An old lesson I learned is if it dies suddenly and without warning suspect an electrical problem. If it runs bad and dies than it is usually fuel. This is not quite so clear-cut anymore with fuel injection systems but it is a starting point anyway. BTW you do have fuel in the gas tank RIGHT?
