It is really easy for me to say that you burned up fuel pump But you need to know that the gas is the coolant for the pump. If you run it dry, or even habitually low, not submerged it will burn up. You need to check the fuel pressure on the injector rail -- should be 30 +/- 5 psi. Or go to this site for more information - http://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1082992-1993-e-150-fuel-pressure-problem.html

Did you hit the fuel reset button after you run out of gas ?
