Ran out of gas now will not start

Alright here is what happend...

I was driving home in my Company truck and saw a someone that had driven off the road...
Went home and got my 1996 dodge ram 360 V8.
pulled her out started on down the road and saw that my wife had been driving my truck and didnt out gas in it! soooooo! i ran out of gas.
I put 7g of gas in the tank and it will not start. The temp is 9 F thats right a cold 9 F. could the temp have anything to do with no fuel getting to the motor?
When i try starting my truck it was cold as well??????
HELP! its going to drop to -4 F tonight

That's right blame it on the wife! Yeah!

I dunno. I'd hit the key a couple times to make the pump come on, and keep trying to start it...

it could be several things. there could be condensation in the line that has frozen, or there could have been debree in the tank that got pulled into the filter.

try turning the key "on" but don't start the truck. listen and see if you can hear the pump turn on. if the pump turns on, wait a few seconds, and try to start it. if you don't hear the pump turn on, check the fuse.

try hitting the bottom of the tank as you're cranking it over

I did try that and the truck Did start then die, I did this about 6 time's then the truck started and stayed running for about 10mins then died again....
Havent tryed again cause I tryed this on my lunch break..

sounds like a bad fuel pump

Did some testing....
Hot wired the pump unplugged the gas line and Nothing...
Hit the tank and the pump started to work unplug the power then plugged it back in nothing hit the tank again and it started to pump...
BAD FUEL PUMP

Thanks guys for all your help

Now you gotta decide whether you're gonna drop the tank, or take the box off the truck to get that pump out.

I droped the tank to check it...
It was really easy, I only had 5g of gas in it. one man job 15mins.
Ahhhhhhh
They want $335.00 for a Damn pump....
