What causes my car to stop?

Asked by Lisa Feb 07, 2016 at 05:59 PM about the 2009 Hyundai Accent

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2009 Hyundai Accent that I just put a new
fuel pump in. My car would run for about 15
minutes and just shut off while driving and I'll have
to wait awhile on the side of the road for some
time before it'll start again. I would like to know
what causes that if possible.
