you should not let them run dry as they use the fuel to keep cool if not they can overheat and sieze as your one may have done

no might be dry but i have not started the car yet only getting around to it now, should i put fuel in the tank ?

is it clicking or ticking it should tick fast untill till makes pressure than it will slow you best to have fuel in the tank
