Hello, I don't know how to explain what the problems are with the car, and I'll probally sound a bit redundant and childish how I explain the issue's I'm having with the car but It's the only way I really know how to explain them. So please bare with me.

Well the car was bought over a year ago, 2011 I believe and it ran well for the first couple of months. Then my sister started seeing issues with it, bought a new car and just left the car in our driveway for about 3 months. So now I drive this car. First the car had nothing wrong, or it appeared so. It had something wrong underneath the car that made it vibrate as if the car was in the middle of a earthquake. It had something to do with the alignment. That was fixed. But there was also a problem with the fuel pump. The Fuel pump was replaced with a new one.
Now I'm driving for about another 2 weeks and the car starts to die on me. I couldn't get from one block to the other without it dying on me. So we take it back to the car repair man. He again gets a new fuel pump and replaces it.
So now this is where I am at. Today, the car died twice on my way to school. And maybe 4 or 5 times coming home from school. My friend recommended that I turn of the lights and radio to see if that was affecting it. It didn't die.
Okay, so what I'm asking is what do you think is wrong. The car will turn on, then die. It either starts fine then dies or won't start. It makes a repeating noise like "KA KA KA AKA AK KA" and I have to stop and try again. Now the car is already running without A/C on the count that there is something wrong that.

I Know the descriptions of my problem are very vague but I really don't know the parts or how to describe them. If anyone even remotely knows whats wrong could offer some advice it would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the forum. There're too many things that can cause what you're describing. Unfortunately this shop you keep going back to has a part changer for a mechanic. Consider finding another shop with staff that actually know what they're doing.
