SOURCE: Ran out of gas and now she won't run!
i would say that you have a bad fuel pump or if you have a carb on it the float inside the carb is stuck check these and i'm sure you will find it's one of these.

if you were completely out of gas you can prime the car by turning the key forward until just before the starter engages and back off again. do this several times. doing this will allow the fuel pump to prime.

If it has been sitting for quite some time the fuel will go stale or condensed with water (water will sit on the bottom of wherever the fuel is....
1. Drain Fuel Bowl on Carburettor
2. Replace fuel filter
3. Drain off about 5 liters out of hte bottom of the tank.
REconnect all lines of system you have dissasembled and crank to see if it will start.... if no good within 1 minute of cranking... you may need to completely drain fuel tank and refill with fresh fuel.
To Prevent this from happening in the future you need to store with a full tank and blank off any vents to prevent air from entering the fuel system.... remove when coming out of storage and start!
SOURCE: idles good, dies when i put it in gear
I had a very similar problem except I would have to throttle my truck just to keep it running. It wouldn't even idle. If I were you check the spray pattern on your fuel injectors. It should look like a nice misty cone. Youy dont want lage drips of fuel, you want a mist. Also cut into your fuel line to test your fuel pressure. It should be around 9-13 psi. My truck had 3psi. I then replaced the fuel pump and the problem was solved. Hope this works for you.
SOURCE: Engine wont stay running. Please help.
change the filter first. IF the pumpwas bad it wouldnt start at all. It could be going bad but the only way to really test it is to pull your gas tank and at that rate you may as well replace it.
you could have a clogged injector causing the lack of fuel as well. you can try injector cleaner, Lucas is my personal preference I use it at every fill-up. 4-6oz per tank of gas depending on your tank size.
