Did you maybe hit the fuel pump kill switch on the passenger side kick panel?
How do you know you have fuel? Did you check for pressure at the fuel rail?

so i just tell them theirs a fule pump recall.
and the switch was not tripped i checked that first.
what i ment by the car has fuel was that there is gas in the tank (think blond joke)

Obvious question, do you hear the fuel pump kicking in when you first turn the car from the OFF to the RUN? (but not START)
