Clogged filter. Replace the fuel filter and pour in at least 5 gallons of fuel before attempting to start the car. Use starter fluid to start it if necessary.

CHECK IN THE TRUNK TO THE RIGHT. BEHIND THE CARPET LOOK FOR A RED BUTTON. ITS THE FUEL SHUT OFF. PUSH TO BUTTON DOWN AND YOU SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO
