haha good guesses but i have plenty of gas and didnt forget the clutch either. it was running a little rough before like shifting between gears it would bog down really bad after letting the clutch out. it happened as i was slowing down to stop at a light it sputtered and just stopped running and when trying to start it again all it did was turnover. anything i forgot?

Fuel filter? CPS?
Are we supposed to keep guessing until we get it right? Do you already know and this is a contest?
What have you checked? Do you have fuel? Do you have spark?
