I went over a big piece of tire on the road. The car just lost power and stop running. Is there any inhibitor switch for the fuel system? When I spray fluid into the intake system the car will running.

This sounds like the crankshaft angle sensor or the fuel pump has gone out, when you turn the key to the on position without cranking the engine over can you hear the fuel pump run in the tank for 5 seconds? These guides should help us fix it.
