Default whats going on with my car!? please help me out!

OK i did mutiplis searchs and found real good info but nothing related to my problems,

Yesterday my car died out, *cuz i was dumb and didnt pump gas* on a empty tank, then after i got gas, it started to run funny, exhaust got quieter and intake was much more louder, when vtec engages it dont seem like it pulls but it will crossover and then slow pull *sluggish feeling*, after that today, I was washing my car and pulled out #1 spark plug to see if my spark on the car was strong or now *while the car was running* and right after i seen there was spark the car died out after i pushed the spark plug wire back into #1, now it wont start, i checked all the fuses, checked my cap/rotor/ wires/ spark plug wires, ecu, nothing is wrong, *that i noticed* what might be cause of all this? first and formost the non running vehicle is my main concern

I think at least one of 3 things happened here:

1 Burnt out fuel pump from having no fuel

2 Clogged injector(s) with dirt in bottom of tank

3 Clogged fuel line

4 Clogged engine bay fuel filter

Check those out and I would bet that it what the original problem was.

Checking for spark can also mess up the insides of your distributer, so if you have an extra dizzy, that is worth checking to see if yours is fucked or not. Because it could be.

Good luck. Next time, fill up sooner...
