The most important thing is not to be nervous! Turn on the hazard warning lights, press the clutch pedal; using the car's inertia, try to carefully move to the edge of the roadway and stop as far to the right as possible at the side of the road, and if possible, outside the roadway.
Warning: Please note that when the engine is not running, the effectiveness of the vehicle's braking system is reduced and more force on the brake pedal may be required to brake.
Set the parking brake; if the vehicle is stopped on a slope, use wheel chocks.
In difficult traffic conditions and on country roads, put up an emergency stop sign, as provided by the Road Traffic Regulations. Now it is necessary to identify and eliminate faults in the ignition system and the fuel system.
First, find out if there is gas in the tank. Turn on the ignition and look at the fuel gauge.
If the yellow fuel reserve light is not on and the indicator arrow shows the presence of fuel, it can be assumed that there is gasoline in the tank.
Open the hood and carefully inspect the underhood space. Pay attention to the integrity of all units. Check if all the wires are in place, if there are any torn, burnt, or damaged insulation.
Inspect the petrol hoses for any petrol leaks.
Warning! If gasoline is leaking, do not start the engine under any circumstances until the problem is completely eliminated!

Inspect the expansion tank of the cooling system - has the coolant leaked? Check the oil level in the engine crankcase. If everything is OK, proceed to checking the ignition system and the power supply system described earlier.
