I'd say, christmas eve you might have to fix it yourself.
Describe how it stopped, what type of driving were you doing, was it behaving normally prior, weather conditions, last serviced, what you had for
breakfast, when did you last go to the bathroom, and any other info you'd wish to share........
Maybe someone close can help so where are you presently?
People here could help you through various checks, depending on what you want to do, how many tools do you have????????????????
etc. etc. etc........

I would start with fuel. That is what it would do if the fuel pump failed.

Take ur air filter off. By hand open ur throttle, if you can't see fuel squirt down, then u know u ain't got fuel in the carb. Either pump, blocked
filter/supply line. follow it through.
