Try turning the starter generator motor a 1/2 turn by hand press gas see if it takes off? If it does run your, starter generator is bad. When you replace it spend the extra 20 bucks and replace the voltage regulator also. A bad regulator will kill your starter generator.

I had the same problem. Had ladies and kids in the car. Dead in the staging lanes. Took it home and chased the dogs tail. Found the engine oil low. Added oil and started right up.

Is that the big single motor or twin? Front of the motor down low is an electronic black box. Rpm limiter, when it quits- so does the engine. If and when it fails. You can bypass but it runs better with it.
