I was driving along and my car just shut off I tried to restart it and it would crank but will not fire back up I get noise from the fuel pump so thats not it. If anyone has any idea what it could be please let me know I would appreciate it.

TFI. They don't like the heat we've been having

I wouldn't rule out the fuel pump just yet. Check for fuel as well as spark.
