won't start
Roommate ran out of gas. We put 4-5 gallons in. Cranks but won't start. Like not getting fuel. Googled it. Suggested replacing fuel pump relay. Done. Still cranking but no start. Help.

Old fart with a wrench
Have you tried spraying fuel into the air intake?
This happened with my Chevy truck and it took quite a long time running on manual prime for the pump to pick it up from the tank.

Guessing a dead fuel pump. When you turn the key to on it should run for a couple seconds. Have someone listen at the tank, it should be audible.
