Okay so i'll start from the beginning...
This morning I drove over to my co-workers house to pick him up. I pulled into his driveway, which is at a pretty good incline, and after a couple minutes the car sputtered and died. I turn the key and all it does is crank. Oh yeah, and I was down to about an 1/8 of a tank. I put a couple gallons in it when I got home from work, but it didn't help. Any ideas on what my next steps should be?

I'm not sure what your next steps should but I do know one should never or at least not make it a habit of letting your car run that low on gas. It makes the fuel pump work harder and can burn it out.
