    M10 wouldn't start after running out of fuel

    Hi guys, I'm having a problem with my 1984 m10 e30. I purchased the car couple months ago and ran it for some time but unfortunately the fuel gauge on it wasn't working and I eventually ran it out of gas. I haven't been able to start the car since then.

    Before this happened I had done some work on the fuel system, it has new plugs, cables, fuel filter. I can hear the pump priming when I turn the key but when I try to start it it just won't happen. The starter is turning but the engine wouldn't start.

    I also tried push/pull starting the car and it seemed to work at first (rpm go up) but once I put it out of gear it dies.

    Help and advice will be greatly appreciated!

    pull the fuel line and see if fuel is coming out, you may have sucked up some shit and blocking a line
