its a 98 contour SE. i was driving in 5th gear in the fast lane on the freeway when i noticed both gauges drop to zero(mph and rpm) so i drop it into 4th and try to pop the clutch the car starts for a second and then dies again. so i coast to the side and try to start it. it cranks but it doesnt turn over or start. i dont have any lights at all on(cel battery etc.) and everything looks ok in the engine bay. so i had it towed to my house. i asked a couple of mechanic friends of mine and they said i might have lost my fuel pump. does anyone have any info or help that they could give to me. also how do i know for sure if it is the fuel pump is there any kind of test i could do at home to find out.
thanks
Luis
