It can depend on what kind of car you have, some cars have a voltage regulator that lets your distributor get 12 volts on start but then drops voltage on run. sometimes the run resist wire burns out, so you only get power to your distributor on the start circuit. The old type voltage regulator were porcelain with two wire resisters.

I have a 1998 ford excort ZX2 sport and i ran it out of gas and put gas in it but now it will not start.?

from previous experience, you sucked gas sediments into the fuel injector..put a couple of bottles of injector cleaner in the tank and let it set for a couple of hours then try to start it.. also you have a fuel shut off switch in the trunk. i believe it is on the right hand side of the car. make sure that it is depressed. if not push it down and try to start the car.

I used to have a little trick. Before you start the car, just pump your gas pedal a couple of times, then start your car. Mine used to start right up after this. I'm not sure why my car wouldn't start when cold, but it got me around!
