Default Car wont Start

well i was on the way home, and i was running really low on gas, got about 1/4 mile from the house, and the car started cutting off, so i put it in neutral and let it roll all the way to the drive, went to the gas station the next day, got some gas in a tank, went home and put some in the tank, 10 dollars worth, problem is car still wont turn over..i got check gauges light on, but there is fuel in the car and it registers, so i dont know what else the deal can be, i've checked the fuses they are all good..sounds like it wants to turn over, but it just wont, any idea's

sounds kinda like what i am going through right now which is the fuel pump. my car was really low on gas too and died (luckily at a gas station) put some gas in started and drove maybe 20 miles then died for good. now it will turn over but die right away. i also have a service engine light on. so maybe yours is the fuel pump too.
