Step 1: don't let your wife drive...
Step 2: Put 1.75 gallons in tank
Step 3: Turn key and listen for pump working
Step 4: Try cranking

Once your LC starts never let your wife drive it again.....

A couple turns of the Bi-Lateral wing nut, then give the dashboard a good ol' fashioned Arthur Fonzarelli and say "Ayeeee" and it should fire right up.
 
Make sure the torque settings are correct on this thingamajig:

I knew that one was coming. Aren't the bolts supposed to be torqued to 800 ft/lbs.
 
If all these suggestions don't work, get some of your buddies and start rocking the vehicle violently. While they are doing that then keep trying to start it. That should get the gasoline moving.

Also, use more than 1 gallon.
 
Empty synthetic oil and replace w/ conventional. If you had conventional and went to synthetic - don't go back. Just scrap the engine.

Only use premium gas.

Sounds like the muffler bearings are seized. Try adjusting the phitzer valves to free it up.

Look at the bypass line? Have available 3-in-1 oil and gauze pads. Once running again, may need to double check fluorocarbon output.
