"86 900 n/a no start after run out of fuel

I gave my '86 naturally aspirated 900 to my little sis as a starter car. She drives quite infrequently once a month is to the high end of the cars operation so the fuel system is in less than prime shape. I last borrowed the car to give the engine a turnover and some highway miles 3 months ago. Last month she took it to the grocery and back and ran out of gas two houses away. It was pushed into the driveway and has sat since.
I have dumped 4 gallons of fuel and tried starting 10 times on the past few days. The battery has been charged and she still will not do much more than cough once. The cough seems just shy of turning over but does not hold. If I feather the pedal to enrich the mix there is no aid to starting. Where do I start?
