2003 GMC Sonoma, engine turns over but will not start.
What is your question?
My truck is a 2003 GMC Sonoma, 2.2L (repairpal did not give me the option of selecting 2.2 liter), standard transmission. When driving the other night, the engine started rocking very hard (I could feel it in the cab) like a cylinder was not firing. The truck also lost power. I was able to pull it into a parking space, at which point the truck shut itself down. When I turn the key now, the starter will turn the engine over without a problem, but the truck doesn't even try to actually start. Power in the cab seems to be fine. If I leave the key in after trying to start it, I hear a clicking from the passenger side of the engine compartment, near the glove box. The only gauge that moves when I turn the key is the battery gauge - all others are dead.
I'd be happy to provide more information. Does anyone have an idea of what the problem may be?

Sorry it took me so long to respond to this - I didn't have a second person to turn the ignition key over for me. I did not hear any form of pump running in the fuel tank after cranking the engine a few times. Should this have been loud and easy to hear, or is it a quiet pump?
