I recently ran out of gas in my 1986 lincoln town car. I put in two (2) gallons of gas from and the car started. It went long enough to get to a gas station, where I put in about 4 more gallons ($10). The car started and went for about 1/4 of a mile where it cut off and hasn't started since. Your thoughts?

When you run out of gas in your car 95% of the time it burns out the fuel pump. Gasoline acts as pump lube. Good luck

Yes I agree with the other guy the fuel pump could be your problem try turning the switch on with the door open and listen to see if you here your fuel pump making a sising sound I you don't here that then your problem may be your fuel pump
