Message : Had this happen to me once.

On the way home from work one time just completely wiped out tired, I was on fumes but I just wanted to get home. Ate, couple of beers and straight to bed.

The next morning the Z wouldn't start. After a couple of hours investigating found out I wasn't getting any gas. Thought I was out of gas and just coincidentally ran out in my garage. Put 5 gallons in, still no go. Thought I had fried my fuel pump. Damn, towed it in to have the pump replaced, by the time they got to it 2 days later it fired right up. Evidently it just dried out - bad juju they told me.

Side note: surprised the shit out of me that the shop didn't charge for the new pump install. I would have never known. I guess there are still a few honest people out there.
