I have a 1999 GMC Sierra 1500. Lastnight on my way home from work I thought I ran out of gas. I knew I was getting low on gas and the low fuel was on. Pretty soon I just wasn't running and couldn't get it started again. The gas gage read empty also. My wife brought me 6 gallons of gas and I put that in and it still didn't start but also still showed empty on the gage. She went and got another 6 gallons,nothing happened :(. I had to call a tow truck to bring us home. Went and got a new fuel pump because I was told that often times if the fuel pump is bad the gage might not work either. Got it put on and low and behold, NOTHING!!!!!! I checked the fueses in the box under the hood. it appears to be fine. Any help would be appreciated. I can't afford many more days off of work.
 
there is a fuel pump relay
it has gone bad once on me
when you get the replacement relay check the scematic on the side of the old relay and compare it to the replacement they get mixed up and put back in the wrong box it happened to me but i cought it at the auto part store counter
PETE
