Exclamation I need help ASAP MY CAR DIED!

I was getting onto the interstate and right after the onramp my RPM were starting to sputer.

They went from 5000 down to 2500, then back up to 4000 then back down to 2000's and kept going down. I got onto the side of the interstate and turned off my car. I tried to start it again and when i did it sounded like there was a pop at the back of my exhaust. I turned it off and tried again, the same thing happened. Turned it off tried again(third times the charm i was hoping) but it didn't turn on and i started to smell gas. So i waited from my brother to get there and tried to start it again and nothing happened(wouldn't turn over). Tried again and the starter didn't even do anything(must be the battery we though) jumped my car and still nothing. Started it again finally and my brother said he heard a noise in my intake(its after market if that matters).
I started to smell gas again and we were both thinking WTF and called AAA and now it is in my drive way...dead

Later that day my brother told me it may be the fuel pump, since the car is 20 years old and the fuel now isn't as good as it was before, said something about the ethenal the fuel or something


Please help, its my only car, so i need it to be fixed ASAP
