S13 KA24DE Won't Start!!

I was driving home and my car randomly wouldn't accelerate and acted like it didn't want to receive fuel when i would push on the pedal. I had to sit at the light and rev the engine to keep the car on.

Once home i popped the hood and noticed the spark plug wire on cylinder 3 was laying on the header heat shield, it was NOT melted but i was concerned that this maybe caused the problem.

I checked that spark plug from cylinder 3 and it was super black from running rich. It smelled like gas and the plugs were changed 1 week from this post.

I can hear the fuel pump cutting on but i had someone suggest to me that it may be the problem, either that or the crankshaft position sensor but i'm not sure. I need the experts help!

! Let me know what you think it may be!
