I just checked the fuse and it is fine, but I did replace it. Still nothing.

I've got a 9 page document that I found online titled "troubleshooting c5 no start issues" saved as images on my computer. I tried google it and send the link, but I couldn't find it. PM me your email and I'll send the pics as attachments.

Bad things happen when you push the car to the limits while low on gas.

Is there a fuel relay? I do not hear the fuel pump when I turn the key on. The check engine light also stays on when I keep the key turned on. I am at a loss. I just don't see how GM would make a car that if you run out of gas there would be major damage.
