I had this car for three days. On the first day it was perfect and then the second day it just stopped out of no where. I started it up and it kept doing it every now and then until it never started up any more.

I now have no spark and no fuel.

What is the problem?

I don't know about the Probe in particular, but I know some cars have a crankshaft position sensor that tells the ECU that the engine is turning over, and they won't turn on the fuel pump if they aren't getting a signal from that sensor. I'd also recommend checking your relays. Since it was an intermittent fault I'd suspect relays before fuses, but fuses can become cracked and intermittent too, especially if they're old. You might want to try swapping any fuses related to the fuel pump or ECU if there are any other fuses in the block that have the same rating.
