Car died while running

What did you put in the tank and how full was the tank?
Returned to car to pull it home and saw oil on ground...replaced oil pan gasket new oil and filter ..and still cranks but no start...what do I do next
Tank was nearly 1/2 full...added stop fuel treatment
STP FUEL and injector cleaner
You probably over dosed it but I doubt that is the problem. The only possible link I can think of is it loosened up so much gunk that it plugged up the fuel filter.
We also checked and plugs are firing so I'm not sure if it could have a reset or safety switch or need rebooting ....or is it fuel related
Try changing the fuel filter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R0Qb4H9_PDs
That's what I'm thinking..but it was so quick to happen and I just got car and unfamiliar with it....It had been setting up for 8 months with water in floorboard....after removing water and putting a hot battery on car it cranked right up and I drove it home when I bought it 1 week ago...
Will do fuel filter in the am and see....thanks
That may be a factor don't you think? The STP may just be a coincidence.
