car problem....it won't start

so i went outside to clean the 10 inches of snow off my car today and to warm up my car. It started right up so i let it run then about 2 minutes later, my car died. I tried to start it back up and It will not start. It cranks pretty good no problem, the dash and lights all work so i dont think its the battery. Does anyone have any idea what it might be? Thanks in advance!

You're not out of gas right? The exhaust pipes aren't buried are they?

What year is your car and what exactly the car is doing when you try to start it up

it is 2000. when i turn the key, everything seem normal. it cranks fine with plenty of power, etc... not leading me to believe its the battery or starter or alternator...all the dashboard lights light up, etc... everything seem normal when i turn the key...but just does not start!

Well, I've narrowed it down to the main relay. i spoke to the parts dept at acura dealer and the parts guy also agreed that its more than likely the main relay.
