If you're getting good spark, it's not electrical. Is the fuel pump working?
Did it die while you were cruising down the road or sitting at a stop? Were you slowing down to stop and it died?
You'll need to go into more detail on what happened.

I had a similar thing happen to mine. It turned out to be a loose wire at the fuse box. I Wiggled them around and it fired up, good luck

My uncle's did that, and he said that it was a fuse to the alternator. Replaced the fuse, and it fired right up.

wow....
i am really glad that u posted this cause the Luv that i am driving sounds like it has the same prob
the guy said"I was driving it one day and it just died"
so check connections and fuses then replace the relay if first 2 don't work?
kinda sounds like a common prob in the Luvs...

Could it be an alien spaceship beaming down? Maybe they wish they had a LUV. :rocol:
