I suspect you didn't replace the fuel? Gasoline that sat around for 3 years is vanish. Drain the tank and flush the fuel lines and clean the injectors.

Yes, a lift pump in the fuel tank and the high pressure pump in the frame rail on the drivers side. If it has been sitting make sure you replace the fuel filter and fuel pump relay.
