My car was low on fuel the other day before work, but having been in this situation a few times before, I knew I had enough gas to get to the gas station. I went to start my car and it would not fire up. The starter cranks, but that's it.

I have started pulling spark plugs one at a time to determine if that may be the cause and have added 2 almost 3 gallons of gas.
