Car won't start after running out of fuel

Hi, my car ran out of petrol and filled it up with more petrol but now the engine wont start. It was fine before. It starts but just doesnt turn over and ignite.

Possibly an airlock in the fuel delivery system. But maybe the mass airflow sensor in the throttle body has failed: www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/nissan/micra-k11-199...d
