"04 Disco Gas issue
Last week my son ran out of gas in my '04 Disco HSE. I added fuel but now it won't start. The engine turns over but it won't start. I've added a few more gallons of fuel thinking it needed more to register but no luck.
Is there something else I need to be doing or does running out of gas trigger other issues? Any advice would be most welcome.

There is an inertia switch on the firewall that might need to be pressed. There is a schrader valve on the fuel rail to test for fuel pressure with a guage (32 - 34 PSI) (or depress with a rag nearby to see if gas gushes out, a trickle won't be enough). The fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, and fuel filter are all with the pump under the rear cargo area, so getting good fuel to the schrader valve eliminates most of the stuff in the rear. And depending of angle of vejhicle you might need more fuel in the tank.
