Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.com.

It is not uncommon to damage a fuel pump when running out of gas, but that should not have any issue with spark. Did you check to see if there is fuel pressure? How did you check for spark?

Here are a couple links that provide directions for what I mentioned above. I do not know if you need them or not. However, let me know about the fuel pressure.

Let me know about the fuel pressure.

Take care,
Joe
