Does running your car near empty cause problems?
I let my fuel light come on before I fill up. I rather let it run near zero and fill up with $15 than fill it all the way up. Would there be any repercussions in doing this?
Assuming the car is not chugging on its last drops of fuel, and a constant flow of gasoline is supplied to the engine why would I have any problems?
I thought a fuel filter was supposed to catch all the "sediments" maybe a fuel filter change should be considered?
After reading the sediment is not a problem remark I had to respond. No it is never a good idea to run habitually low on fuel for the same reasons stated:
heating up the pump - most internal fuel pumps are cooled by the fuel itself
Not being able to get gas
True, the pump siphons fuel from the bottom but it all comes down to the numbers game. When the tank is full, the odds of picking up debris is astronomical compared to the lighter fluid fuel. As the fuel level lowers, the odds start to increase exponentially.
For example, have you ever watched the water pump of water cooled air conditioner otherwise known as a swamp cooler. They're used because of the arid climate so naturally there is dust everywhere. Even at the bottom of the a/c unit where the water is. As the water level decreases, the pump will start to pump more and more dirt up to the pads to soak them.
