Engine cranks and changed out fuel filter. Made a pop sound when driving and engine shut down. Checked all the fuses and wires on engine and still just cranks but will not start.

Hey MIKE,

It sounds like you may have a broken valve spring, can you confirm by doing a compression test.

Here is a guide that will help you.
