After the gas is in, open your trunk. On the drivers side, by the wheel well, there is a little button. This is your reset button, press it. This should take care of it.

the button neal talks about is a collision reset button.its possible but not likely.turn key on,under the hood find the fuel rail.on it is a valve that looks like a tire valve stem.push it in,gas squirts out good you have fuel. I think you didn't run it out of gas but coincedently your ignition module went out.

also turn key on,if you here a faint whining sound from the gas tank area for a couple seconds your fuel pump is working.try it a couple times. sure you hear it, then you have an electrical problem,most likely ignition module,good luck.

I hope its not your fuel pump as many times I've seen this happen.. fuel runs empty and you suck up those little nasties that get passed the pump screen and damage the pump.
I just replaced the pump on my 90 probe, it required removing the rear seat bottom (thank God the gas tank didn't need to be dropped!), pretty easy job for those who have some common sense.
