use some starting fluid, spray a little bit in the carburetor then try to start it, it should start,if not check for spark at the spark plug and there is a little valve on the fuel rail it has a black cap on it looks just like a cap on the tires take the cap off and push the pin in and see if gas comes out if you have spark and gas it should start
all codes relate to the auto trans so check fluid level,change fluid if not done recently if this makes no difference then take to an autobox repair shop as could be torque converter solenoid valve and or the PCM malfuntioning
You must let all air out of the fuel rail so it will start. You will need to crack the nut to the fuel line near the engine to do so. After you have loosen the nut turn the ignition key On for 5 seconds about 6 times to insure all air has escaped. DO NOT TURN THE KEY FULLY OR THE STARTER WILL CRANK..Dry off excess fuel off the engine at let stand to dry before trying to start it up
if it ran out of gas it just may be air locked, you can't just crank the engine turn the key to the run postion for 3 seconds and shut off and do this 7 or 8 times then try starting it. The fuel pump will not pump while cranking it is a fail safe if the car is in a wreck and the pump won't continue to pump gas out and catch on fire. This should fix it for you.
The starter selinoid(sp) is either bad,
or the starter is loose and not grounded ,
one of the wires to the selinoid(sp) is off,
or the starter itself is bad. Least likly.
