Well, this could be a number of things.

First, check the fuse for the fuel sending unit to be sure there's power going to it. Next, turn the key to 'power on' but don't start it and try to hear the sending unit 'humm' while it's priming the lines.

If you can hear it or you know there's power, pull the key and get underneath and disconnect the fuel line just after the filter and put the key back in and turn it back to the power on, but no start. If everything's good then fuel will start coming out of the lines and you know that there's most likely a blockage further downstream and it's not a faulty sending unit. Good luck!

Have a vz v6 alloytec commodore wagon 2006 wife run out of fuel after putting some in it the car runs rough and takes a few times to start it the car run for a couple of weeks still with the starting...

It's always bad to let the fuel system dig into whatever lies at the bottom of the tank. You have fuel.. or something.. getting to the motor but I suspect that the carburation system has got some serious issues.
Not being inclined to mess with these, I would give call my favorite mechanic up and take it from there. If you are mechanically inclined, you might entertain getting a carb rebulid kit.
If this machine is fuel injected the injectors or some other part of the system may be clogged.
Good luck.

passably the cover on you motor should stop water from getting in or you got old fuel, or bought bad fuel if possible water in fuel tank buy a bottle of heat this will remove water from fuel tank, replace fuel filter if one or drain moisture trap on engine fuel system.

Fuel pump will run get fuel to fuel rail but not to motor

fords run two (2) relays for the fuel system one runs the fuel pump and the other runs the injectors so buy one relay and just switch one at a time you will be up and running in no time.Hope this helps you.

Engine won''t stay running,already replaced fuel pump

try a new fuel filter as well if the pump can't get fuel to the motor it won't run. You may have crud in the tank too. you need to find out if the fuel is getting to the motor.

Fuel guage on my 2006 chevy trailblazer stopped working and now it doesn't work right it fluxuates even when the tank is all the way full

possible fuel gauge malfunction but its a chevy.

over the past year chevrolet fuel pump failure has increased by over 900% the fuel level sending unit is incorperated in the fuel pump module,

these fuel pumps do not like fuel additives nor do they tolerate E85 fuels.

you will need to replace your fuel pump assembly, try to locate a carter brand pump they are very reliable.

as far as replacement.
just open the fuel filler door remove the two torx screws and one push pin from the fuel filler neck, go under the truck at the back of the bed on the frame cross bar and unplug the bed plug, remove the 8 bolts that attatche the bed to the frame and the one ground wire under the bed by the fuel filler neck. get a budy and lift the bed off of the frame, now you can access the top of the fuel tank for the pump replacement. dont get discouraged it is a easy fix, i can do these in under an hour.

Wontstart

If the fuel pump is working, fuel should be reaching the motor. Otherwise, you need to check the fuel pressure regulator. Depending on the location, if it is before the motor and the regulator is bad, then the fuel wont pass through.
Did you check for spark from the wires? My experience with Chevy Cavaliers is usually electrical but not fuel related.

Nate, I'm not sure what you mean when you say,"I can get it to whine but not turn over. The starter is trying to get it to turn, but I don't think it is getting any gas".

Separate and aprt from not getting any gas is the fact( if I understande you correctly) that the motor is not being cranked by the starter motor. You say "it whines". You are referring to the starter motor, right? the starter motor should not "whine". If this is what's happening by guess is the Bendix spring in the starter motor is broken. The bendix spring is a heavy spring that is mounter on s worm gear in the starter motor. When you go to start the motor by turning the key the starter motor turn and the spring travels down this worm gear and engages tthe geared flywheel and cranks the engine. As soon as the engine starts the flywheel is now turning the bendix spring faster that the starter motor and the spring kicks back to its original position. If the spring is broken it never engages the flywheel and the engine wont crank.
The fact that you say the starter "whines" is what I would expect you to hear if the starter is at fault.

As far as no fuel flow there are 2 ifs: if you have an electric fuel pump, then there is a problem in the fuel flow. If you do not have a electric pump then the fuel pump runs off of the engines motion and since the engine is not cranking, the pump is not pumping and the fuel is not flowing.

Anything else you can add before we conclude that the starter has to come off?
