On the subject of running out of fuel it is also common that even with some fuel in the tank to "run out". There have been many cases where the baffles are missing or incorrectly installed or the pickup hose is kinked or cut. If you have chronic fuel problems nothing can beat going into the fuel tank and inspecting for dirt, missing or bad parts, or an improperly positioned fuel pump. It is very easy on assemble to turn the pump and kink the pickup hose. I recomend that a spring be installed in the "s" pickup hose. Most fuel system problems begin in the tank.
