Certainly, a clogged fuel filter(depending on the car there could be up to five fuel filters) could make your car stop running. However, when posing a question about your car don't leave your mechanic in the dark! He needs to know the make,model,year,mileage and under what conditions the problem/problems occur. In my forty plus years mechanical experience I've found it is generally a combination of problems which lead to the symptom.
