You should actually check the fuel pressure with a gauge, you can probably borrow one from AutoZone. I would think you should have around 40 PSI. There should be a test port on the fuel rail (chrome tube on top of the engine). It could be a plugged fuel filter or frozen gas line if you're in a cold climate.

On most of your newer cars the fuel level sensor is located in the tank with the fuel pump.The only way to test it for proper operation is to remove the fuel pump and test the sensor.Unfortunitly your tank has to be removed because the pump and sensor as one unit.The fuel pump costs about 219.00 up to 229.00 depending on where your live plus your labor and that price changes from area to area.I hope that solves your problem for you.
