Yes, the symptoms are the same as if you ran out of gas. Did your gas
evaperate in the 6 months? Dont trust the dash gauge. A vanagon will
start , but not rev when gas only remains in the fuel lines. Gas wont
evaperate from the fuel lines as fast as the tank. This  running gets
weaker ,and weaker as pressure gets lower.
