My wife was driving my 95 monte carlo and it ran out of gas added gas but still did not start tried starting fluid still nothing changed the fuel pump and fuel fillters still nothing The battery has been checked and fixed the starter the previous week it just sounds like it wants to start but does not the battery is working fine to. Man please help

I would start by checking the fuel pump...sitting for that long will rust the fuel pump

Fix your car right away by clicking the link I attached Chevy Monte 1995 1999 Factory Service Workshop repair manual

where did u get the fuel pump from? the fuel pump might have been bad or the pressure in the fuel system isnt where it should be, you might have air in the lines

The fuel pump is bad, the electric motor was stuck in a bad position & when you hit the bottom of the tank it made the rotor turn to good spot which allowed you to drive. But make no mistake, the fuel pump is bad!

try start with starter fluid if starts than need to check fuel filter and pump again turn key and have u or someone listen at tank for hum of pump if hum turn off and open cap to release pressure check fuel filter and or replace if needed turn on pump and check pressure at straider valve on fuel rail by fire wall drivers side if pressure vehicle should start / if no hum at pump check connections to pump and test pump new doesnt mean free from defects repair or replace as necessary

BAD GAS!!! Empty tank, lines and and float. Get tarnish out with carb cleaner and put in fresh gas with chemical to dry lines of water/whatever. Replace fuel filter.

check fuel pump quick check spray starter fluid if starts no fuel reaching throttle body if no start or gas is present at throttle body check for spark from distributor to coil pack

try the distributor cap

Hi anthony,

you said you had gas, exactly how much, the reason I ask this question is in '95 GM had major issues with fuel pumps. The fuel pumps of that year depended on the tank always being at least 1/4 full. The uses the fuel to cool itself if you run the car lower on gas than this you will experience exactly what your experiencing

now. I had a 95 gm product and ran into this issue several times.

I would verify fuel pressure , even though you here the pump.Then i would check for a well defined (blueish) spark to the spark plugs..Good Luck...
