Ran rough and just quit like it was out of gas,put more gas in,,could her sound of electic fuel pump.stil will not fire at all
If fuel pressure is ok,the upper intake gasket is common on the 3.8 litre and so is the camshaft position sensor and the crankshaft sensor.you need to check with a scan tool for crankshaft signal,and any codes.if the intake has a severe vacuum leak it can cause a no start condition.usually the camshaft phase sensor will cause a rattling noise that sounds like a bad belt or tensioner from the passenger side of the vehicle.the camshaft sensor requires removal of the power steering pump to replace it.

when you hold the accelerator does the vehicle stay running? if so the problem is in ithe IAC idle air control motor, take a small screw driver and using the handle tap the iac motor and usualy the motor will kick in and the vehicle will run fine then if the problem is rectified replace the IAC

it should be under the dash near the brake peddle, also a relay fuse under the hood. the fuel filter might have clogged up also. but you should be able to hear a faint whirring sound if the pump is working.

does it have two tanks? if so it might be your switch valve. its located on the drivers side frame rail in front of the first tank
SOURCE: drive'n and i thought i ran out of gas /try to prym it
when low on gas the impuritys in the tank can clog the fuel filter, so if the fuel pump has air in it , it might not be able to overcome the resistance in the filter, replace fuel filter and try again

I know some old fuel injected systems will dump fuel because of the coolant temp sensor should be located on lower intake in the front. Also check the timing.

Have you inspected the vehicle for spark coming out of the spark plug wires? Is there a check engine light on at all?
