03 Type S. I had that issue with the fuel gauge reading empty when I had a full tank and I could live with that just by estimating trip mileage. Yesterday it completely died while I was going into a main road intersection just outside my neighborhood and it wouldn't start. It cranks but doesn't fire up. Some good guys got out of their vehicles to help me push it back and I parked it next to the nearest house. I'm thinking of just having it towed to my mechanic because I'm already in the middle of a timing belt change on my Subaru that's giving me issues. Any tips? Did the fuel pump finally crap it's pants? The dealer who I got it from had it "replaced" probably with a shoddy part that lasted half a year. Thanks for any help.

 

Can you get a scanner and see if there are any codes?

You can always try the "spray some starter fluid into the airbox" while cranking to see if it fires up. That will tell you if it's a fuel issue. The PGM-FI relay is a known problem child (under the dash).

Every story I see that starts this way ends with "oh, the tank was empty."

 

No it isn't chief. Read the original post again.

 

Did you check and see if all the fuel lines were good and not corroded/broken?
I had to redo fuel lines on my 01 3.2 TL and I used some rubber on the feed line I believe and it was only held on by a zip tie and came loose one time, I had to make sure to use small clamps and secure it correctly.
