Engine Mechanical problem
1996 Pontiac Grand Prix Automatic 170000 miles

I recently purchased this car and it drove fine for 2 weeks. then i went to start it one day and it would turn over and start but as soon as you put any pressure on the gas it would stall and die. now i am finding that it wont even turn over. and on top of that when we were trying to move it by pushing it the emergency brake was pressed and now it wont release. can anyone tell me what i might be able to do?

The first thing I would test is the fuel pressure. It sounds like the fuel pump may have failed.
