Default Timing problem please help

Hello all. I have a 92 sc300 it sat in front of my house for a few weeks because I was replacing alot of suspencion parts. When I got the work done I went to start my car and about 2 blocks from my house I ran out of gas. I filled up the tank but ever since it died I've been having a problem with the timing (I think) sometimes when I am driving the car will loose power. Some times it dies and sometimes it just stops ecselerating, I keep my foot on the gas and it kicks back in. I replaced my fuel filter it seamed to be better but about 15 miles after I replaced it it happened a few more times. I'm not sure what to do. I will send to a shop if I have to but I would rather do it myself. Any help is much appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Since your trouble started with lack of gas, it is likely that the issue you have has to do with fuel/delivery. Pump/air in the line or the infamous fuel pump relay come to my mind.

Dude,


What error codes are present, if any?
