definetly have gas, so no cow bell. When it wouldn't start, there was nothing. So far bought the following parts to change out next weekend:
Squirrel condoms
Removing the hidden gas filter and installing an in line fuel filter
Found the relay in question at Advanced Auto
Some may have nothing to do with the crisis, but with 11k miles, may be good preventive maintenance.
Will keep you posted how it goes. Thanks for the help, even the empty tank part.
