Default Back on the road

Just been out and fitted the battery into the car, its not been started for about 3 month so when i put the battery in and connected everything up ready to go, i disconnected the coil lead and let it turn over for a wee while just so there was some oil getting pumped again then i connected the lead and it started on the FIRST turn of the key, i was shocked , it ran as if it was started yesterday, now for the not so good bit.

I let it tick over for about 20 mins to get some heat into it then i drove up the garages so i could take a couple of pictures, i switched it off , took the pictures then got in and tried to start it , NOTHING knew it was low on petrol but when i realised it was on a slight hill, pointing forward, 0 petrol going to the pump , had to push it back down into the garage
What a morning ive had

heres the pictures i took, i hope they were worth it
