How to? Someone better can help.

It may take priming at throttle body (starting fluid), bleeding air out at fuel rail (caution - hazard there) or perhaps a reset of some sort. Electric fuel pumps really don't like running dry or even low on fuel too much and it might have croaked as they get a bit hot without fuel to keep them cooler. If no "buzz" is heard when key is put in "run" position I'd begin checking if power was getting to the fuel pump - easy stuff first, fuses, relays etc., T   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
