Running your tank right down to empty will kill your fuel pump. If its stock its more then likley failed with having lots of miles on it. They work intermitently sometimes before just straight up not working.

Check your fan belt for tension, your battery connections, then have the battery checked if those check out OK.

Check all your grounds, the ones on the head and block, and clean them. Not saying that is it but it's best to start with the simple things instead of throwing parts at it.

Have you checked for codes?http://www.cygnusx1.net/Supra/TechTips/engine_error_codes.aspx

is their a possibility that it could be a clogged up fuel filter? cuz i dont think it has been changed since the car has been on the road and the body has 169xxx miles on her so idk if i should just start lookin at the fuel system first or wat now but im gonna fool wit it this saturday when i dont have to work
