I replaced the water pump. I marked the belt and pulleys to keep it in time. When I put it back together and started it. It only ran for about 10 seconds and then it spit and splitters and died. I tried to start it again it cranked over but wouldn't start. I thought it was out of gas so I put some in it and it still didn't start. I let it sit over night and the next day went to start it and it started for second and then it died and wouldn't start again after that. Do u know what could be causing this?
