UK Car Repair: Not Starting, jerry cans, mg zr


Question
i have a 2003 model mg zr which i used all the petrol up on! i refilled it using jerry cans but no the car will not start as it isnt getting fuel to the injectors ne any ideas?

Answer
yOU NEED TO PRIME IT, IS IT MANUAL OR AUTOMATIC?  iF AUTO, PUT IT IN GEAR AND TURN THE IGNITION ON TO THE START POSITION 5 OR 6 TIMES, THIS SHOULD ACTIVATE THE PUMP, iF MANUAL YOU NEED TO BY PASS THE START PHASE SOMEHOW AND I'M NOT SURE HOW, AS I DO NOT KNOW THIS CAR.  ANOTHER OPTION WOULD BE TO OPEN A FUEL LINE AT THE ENGINE, HAVE A RAG READY TO ABSORB THE FUEL- THEN TURN OVER THE ENGINE UNTIL IT BLEEDS OUT.
