Does the pump prime when the ignition is turned on?

if it does suspect a blocked fuel filter

If it doesnt check the fuses and the relay.

You need to make sure that the fuel is getting to the injectors, and that you have power to the plugs..

Are you getting a spark at the plug leads (take a lead off and put a spare plug in it -earth it against the bock and turn engine over) if there is a spark -- remove the plug the lead is off pour a small capfull of petrol in -replace it all quickly and see if it fires up or attempts to ?

it's possible you have a fault that made you think you had run out of fuel so best to keep a open mind & check for fuel & ignition faults even the immobiliser
