I checked the fuel pump and sounds like it turns on, I checked to see if voltage is going to the relay and the test light lights up. The car was able to start when it first happened but choked and shut off when put into drive but now it won't start at all.

This does sound like a fuel issue even though you can hear the pump. Which means the pump may come on but it doesn't mean it is actually building pressure.

So let's start with checking the pressure. Here is a guide that will help with getting this done:

Please let us know what you find with this and we can go from there. Thanks
