my car started spitting and sputtering while I was driving and then died and will not start again. I need to know what is wrong and how much repairs will be

To determine what's causing it do below and get back
Get a carb cleaner and spray into the carb or the throttle body on an EFI. Did it start and die? If not disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors-

First you should look at the emblems on the car because GM never made or ever will make a 4 cyliner front wheel drive Corvette. You must mean a toy Chevette

I've given you something to work with that has nothing to do with a 4cyl Corvette Chevette there's no such animal I'm 20yrs older than this 75 Corvette-
Do what I've suggested and let me know what's happening so we can continue.

I'm 25 years older than this car and I can aalso quantee that if it is a 75 Corvette it does not have a cam sensor, so you can forget about checking that.

ATTN: volgirl Vettes don't come with FWD/4Cyl engines
The cam and crank sensors are just those in my ignition system checklist for No spark-if it doesn't apply don't worry about it.
