I hate to say it, but I have seen, many times, when people run the tank out of fuel, the fuel pump is damaged and needs replaced. I am interested in knowing the codes you find. However, I feel that if you check the fuel pump pressure, you will find it is low. Check that as well as the codes and let me know what you find.
