I'll keep you posted. Spent a little time on it already. With it not starting, I'm getting fuel through the exhaust so the fuel system is pumping. Potentially just fouled spark plugs since it won't turn over fully.

You lost compression in the engine when you ran it out of fuel. Pretty common. Pull the leading plugs out of the front and rear chambers and drip some engine oil into the engine. It should start right up.
Also, GLWS from one FC guy to another.

Thanks for the input. Drip oil in the plug holes? And would I need to replace the plugs or would this do the trick?
