I changed the fuel filter on my 96 sebring as it had been sitting for the past 2 years also drained the fuel tank and put in fresh fuel the car started right up and ran for about 5 min and then quit. I checked to make sure it was getting fuel and that's fine it cranks and fires but it still will not start it has a new timing belt so that's not the issue could it be that its not getting the right spark and after it cranks for a bit the automatic shut down cuts of the fuel? what do I need to check i'm not a mechanic please help.
