Do you have a check engine light?
Check the fuel pressure with a gauge, fuel pump could be fsiling-start here

I agree with Ras.
In tank fuel pumps are cooled and lubricated by the fuel in the tank. When you run a car out of gas, it pumps a lot of air through the pump which overheats it and causes some severe wear and many times, failure when they cool off.
You will need to use a fuel pressure gauge to verify this
