if it is a gas engine. pull the rubber intake hose off the intake manifold and try spraying starting fluid in the intake while someone turns over the engine.
If the engine sounds like or starts to turn over you'll know it's the line. because you ran out of gas, you could have sucked sediment into the line filter. change filter, blow out the line with compressed air- with the gas cap off from the front of the car back
