Evo died while idling, won't start back up!

Sitting in a drive though waiting for my food, turned my lights off and the car stalled out.

Refused to start but cranking fine, what could be my problem?

Alternator has been acting funny recently...

Evo 9

Thanks

Sounds like what I just went through last fall... Check all your fuses. ALL. YOUR. FUSES.

Definitely check out your 100amp alternator fuse. Mine blew a while back, car wouldn't start at all without it. Troublesome little thing.

could be your fuel pump. Mine had trouble starting and then one day just died while idling and wouldn't start again. It cranked fine though. Changed the fuel pump and it worked like a dream again

Ever figure out what was wrong? Happened to me the other day and wouldn't start for a few minutes. I eventually got it going, but for about 5 minutes it would just crank and not start.
