ok, i was driving my 240 around today. The car started to bog VERY badly. i put some fuel injector cleaner in and it helped a little bit. the tank is almost empty. then when i came a parked the car i turned the lights on to show somebody new that they worked......and all of a sudden one light comes up and the car shuts off, then when i turned the car back on the light that came up will not come back down, and now the other motor is spazzzin out. the car continues to bog and sputter like none other, i just replaced the fuel filter, cap, rotor, spark plugs and wires about 3 weeks ago. i cant figure out whats wrong....please help

btw, its a 92 DOHC w/ 3" exhaust and cone filter.....everything else motor wise it stock.
