Ford Crown Victoria Gas Problem

I ran out of gas, , but when I put more gas in the car it still would not crank. I checked all fuses, which were good , and I also put a new fuel pump on .. The car still didn't crank. What could be the reason for this.

IT FIRES UP........ AND THEY "GO"!

WHEN THE PUMP COMES ON FOR THE FEW SECONDS ("ON" POSITION OF KEY) IF YOUR ENVIRONMENT IS SORTA QUIET---YOU CAN HEAR IT "HUMMM", THEN GO OFF

IF YOU AIN'T SURE---POP YOUR FUEL CAP OFF, HAVE SOMEONE TURN THE KEY TO "ON", LISTEN CLOSE TO THE FUEL NECK FOR THE "HUMMM"

(YOU MIGHT TRY THIS IN ANOTHER "GOOD TO GO" CAR TO SEE WHAT I MEAN)

IF YOU HEAR IT----THE PUMP MAY BE OK

IF YOU DON'T---WORST CASE WOULD BE "FRIED PUMP"

LEMME KNOW YOUR FINDINGS, I'LL CONTINUE TO TRY TO FIND OTHER POSSIBILITIES
