From the other threads someone suggested to try and prime it 2-3 times then try to start, but not much more than that.

Other than that walk to the gas station and get 5gal of gas, or call a tow truck.

You need 5-ish gallons of gas and to try starting your car. Best thing would be to have a battery booster or something, because you'll have try start, or try to start it a lot of times

Nissan makes a car just like that

ChrisSlicks · 08-02-2013, 02:50 PM

You should only need to add 1 gallon, that will be enough to prime the pump side and get the siphon going to pull fuel from the other side.

kenchan · 08-02-2013, 02:54 PM

Sucks. Before risking tow damage to the car ask the tow guy for gas.
