Have you verified spark and fuel pressure? I know that may be a stupid question, but never take those for granted. If a fuel injected car has fuel but not enough pressure, it won't run. And spark is obvious, but you may need a sensor replaced. Have you plugged it into a scanner?

no, dont have anything to plug that in. i might pull a plug and see spark. i replaced teh plugs also. nothing. i dont have anything to check pressure either... im not exactly well supplied to test it. i figured it wasnt somthing big since the car just stopped running.....

What about replacing the fuel filter? Have you done that? Since you let your gas go so low and you have an older car, you may have cloged up the filter.

that was recently replaced. very recently. the cars well taken care of, it just sat when i ran out of gas, bc the country sucks with this lack of jobs.... its sat so long i cant remember were that wire came out of.. but im dont figure it would have migrated that far with me driving it around the block and parking it....
