Default too much oil then drained car wont start.

i have a d16z6, with straight t3 turbo. i realized my oil was about an inch above the 2nd oil fill line on the dipstick, so i drove it to my grandmothers (1 house away) and drained some of the oil, now it's a little above the first dot on the dipstick.. i went to start the car, it started and ran for about 10 seconds then died. my gas was low, i put gas in it. still wont start. any ideas?

maybe you let the fuel go way too low and it started sucking all the debris on the bottom of the gas tank and clogged the fuel filter. just put some more gas in there and change out the fuel filter

i'll try that, someone also said to check the plugs to see if they got fouled somehow? i don't think i can hear my fuel pump also now..but i don't see why all of a sudden the fuel pump would go poo...
