From wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1973_oil_crisis): The 1973 oil crisis began on October 17, 1973, when the members of Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC, consisting of the Arab members of OPEC plus Egypt and Syria) announced, as a result of the ongoing Yom Kippur War, that they would no longer ship oil to nations that had supported Israel in its conflict with Syria and Egypt (the United States, its allies in Western Europe, and Japan).

1973
The oil embargo of 1973 was imposed by the Organization of Arab Petroleum Exporting Countries (OAPEC) in response to the U.S. support for Israel during the Yom Kippur War. The embargo led to a significant increase in oil prices and caused widespread economic disruption in the U.S. and other Western nations, resulting in fuel shortages and long lines at gas stations. This event highlighted the vulnerability of oil-dependent economies and marked the beginning of a shift towards energy conservation and alternative energy sources in the affected countries.

The 1973 energy crisis was caused primarily by a combination of factors, including the OPEC oil embargo, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, and the increasing global demand for oil.
