Ran out of gas
A buddy of mine has a 2005 V8 Tundra, his girlfriend ran it out of gas. After they put some fuel in it, it will not start. It tries, but no go. Is there anything that needs to be reset??

I don't believe anything needs to be reset.
could be a clogged fuel filter
how sure are they that it ran out of gas?
can you hear the fuel pump come on when the ignition is turned on?
Im not familiar with the engine, is there a schrader valve on the fuel rail?

As above, it may be a clogged fuel filter from sucking in any gunk at the bottom of the tank. Try a new filter and I'd suggest a clear line to see what may be getting sucked through. I'd also suggest not letting the girlfriend run your truck completely out of gas!
