Legend says the truck is still driving with an empty tank
lol !
I was abt to say that
Wham Bam Thank You Ma’am I agrew
Doing some math, there is 2.35 gallons left in the tank at zero. If you drive conservatively you could get around 60 miles!
Nope, thats gallons used. He reset that as soon as he went down to "zero miles until empty" so he used 2.3 gallons of gas after his zero miles to empty warning came on.
That all depends
@@mattnewman6895 thats exactly and I mean exactly what the guy said
@@ErRaZzOr some people aren't bright
It’s like watching the episode of Seinfeld where Cramer keeps driving with low fuel light on to see how far he can go😂
That's my favorite episode of Seinfeld
Or Ferris Bueler’s Day Off
Hahaha right
THEY'RE ALL TWIX IT WAS A SETUP.!
Hahahaha. Actually, he kept driving cuz he liked the feeling, the adrenaline of running out of fuel anytime. Hahaha
This guy answers all the questions no one asked for but everyone needed
All while risking the life of his fuel pump
Spoiler alert...The truck never stops, gasoline is a conspiracy theory
jj coolj 😂😂😂
Blame Trump lmao!
Who the hell buys a truck that runs only on 'gasoline' ?
_-dragontype-_, It's better get the one that runs on Diesel.
jj coolj *X-files theme*
Brah, It’s 10/19/23 and this video just made me confident enough to make it to the nearest gas station that was well past 0 to empty! Driving a 2016 F150 EcoBoost. Truthfully I only went 3 miles past 0 to Empty but I made it! Thanks for creating this video. It helped me 6 years later 😂😂
Person 1: How much are you spending on fuel?
Person 2: I drive a ford I don't need fuel
Trucks often have fuel tanks that are larger and sometimes have reserve tanks. Because they were designed to haul and go long distances.
😂😂😂😂😂
to save ya some time he did 49.2 miles on a empty tank
Aaaand here comes the "This is bad for your fuel pump" comments lol ;) Yes I know it's not optimal for the fuel pump! I got about 17,342 AND 1/2 comments on my previous video of the Fusion that I did this "experiment" on stating this fact! I have not forgotten ;)
the fuel pump i am ok with, its the whole "o i do not have power steering" that scares me.
AutoVlog Dont worry it's a girly gasser. Try this on a diesel
AutoVlog their might be s possibility that the truck shuts the cylinders off to save gas
AutoVlog guess you're still under warranty so if it did go kaput you'd be fine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
blackhawk - probably not if they see this video
0 miles to empty.
Most people. lets drive sparingly.
AutoVlog does 92 mph 🤣🤣
Legend says that this truck drove all the way down to Florida on empty to have a supercharger installed.
I watched this video while I was on 0 miles to empty 13 miles away from home,this video made me not stop for gas 😂😂
Just did the same thing.
So you're watching youtube while driving?

Matt Finestein 👀
Me too
have a f150 with the V6 with eco boost ... I have been down to 1 mile a few times but never 0... good to know you tested it..
👍🏻👍🏻
Well the 2018s are alot better now than the 2015-17 models. Because I have the Limited with the new updated 3.5L ecoboost and it runs and does better than ever. I love my truck. And it has nautic/ocean blue leather.
@Joey Mitchell and of course in my junior and senior year I had a blue 2014 F150 Limited. Turned out I took the 2018 Limited back because I decided to get a 2019 F150 Platinum with the 3.5L it's because I have horses and I see most equine cowboys driving f150 platinums more than king ranches the 2018 Limited was a little too fancy but I like the 2019-2020 Raptor powered Limiteds alot better. The interior is something to die for on those trucks so by far the F150 Raptor powered Limiteds are my dream trucks And of course my oldest buddy drives a F450 Limited dually. 6'11 22/23 years old like myself he's something else. But I like my platinum it's badass enough for me and it's also blue jeans. So I have a blue platinum now.
@Joey Mitchell but yeah get the 2018-2020 platinum F150s it's totally worth it man. I have high functioning autism and it drives great very easy. It has the 10 speed on any engine available.
@Joey Mitchell oops sorry.
Police: Sir why where you speeding.
Autovlog: I was trying to make my truck run out of gas.
Police: 😒
"And here's your speeding ticket for doing 100 mph in a 55 zone"
The cop: damn kids
10:06 “smh 🤦♂️what I’m doing with my life”
I've had 5 Mustangs, and 4 F150's in my lifetime. I have never been disappointed by Ford's performance or reliability. I spent 22yrs on a Drilling rig, and all the dirt and mud that comes with it.
18:28 Those gas cans SUCK! They are so slow. They prevent HC loss, but those nozzles even come on my diesel cans. When fueling a CAT skid steer with the recessed filler neck, it's impossible not to spill when you pull back and you are likely to fall asleep it takes so long.
go to Tractor Supply and buy the "replacement water jug spout"... wink... wink...
they fit all popular gas jugs as well. I've converted my EPA designated slower than hell spouts with the "water jug spouts" and the gas hauls ass right into your tank.
never put a watch on it but I bet I can empty 5 gallons in about 3 minuets.
WUHUHUHUHUR that came out wuick
This is my exact same truck, make, and year.
Really funny to watch - Keep it up!
cool !
ZupahModz he said it only had 1 gallon of reserve but the truck said he used over 2 gallons
That's your truck??
Best human psychology video on YT. Wonderment , stress, boredom some more stress combined with wonderment, resignation, more stress, final conclusion, AND THEN ... Standing by the side of the highway filling up gas from a slow pouring gasoline can. I'm glad it all went well. Stationary on the side of any road is very dangerous. We all want to see more of you stay safe.
Had you not floored it up hills
He should floor it
Obedient Octopus same I floor it all the time up hill
Driving strains the tires. Its your truck do with it what you do my dude!
Crudezz Bruh it under goes strain regardless you fool. Absolute Buffoon, trans die and strain from heat. Flooring it up hills hardly puts much stress on it. Yeah it’ll heat up trans fluid but you’re not WOT all the way up Mount Everest for crying out loud
Your average mpg is fantastic!
I know !
zip89105 That's what I get in my 2015 Mazda 6 I grand Touring, 2.5 liter I4 dual clutch 180someHP. Is that bad that it's comparable to a 5 liter V8 300someHP truck?
Imagine what your mileage would have been had you kept the truck at a steady 65mph instead of anywhere from 55 to 85.
Too bad it tows less with better mpg
Worried about mpg? Buy a prius 😂
This is fake. Thats a prius with a ebay body kit
This is true !
Armend Where ur proof
Armend Sahiti lol
Armend Sahiti how dumb could you be
Officer Donuts it's a joke
You should try to see how many gallons does it takes from completely empty to full
These are really good tests. If you're ever in a tight spot for finding a fuel depot when traveling, you can count on something. I don't know what that something is, but it feels like something good. Thank you for being our "ginny pig". I'll learned something from your video. (Thank you)
He's right.
This is nerve wracking.
It made me uneasy and I was only watching the video.
86.2 miles from light turn on to actually run out of gas ... That's amazing but sucks for the fuel pump lol
Daniel Santiago I would imagine the truck is just trying to play tricks on your brain by making it still have a couple gallons left in the tank when it hits 0, so that way people aren't running on fumes for a good while, there's no way it could go that long on fumes, it's a weird thing to do but that's probably what they do.
They do exactly what Weatheronthe8s said. It tricks you because when you are hauling a trailer at the trucks towing capacity you get 2-4 MPG. They want to give you enough time to get to a gas station. My Nissan Titan has a 24 Gallon fuel tank, the gauge hits empty when you have 4 gallons left in the tank.
Daniel Santiago meh it's really only bad if you try to start the truck after it's ran out of gas.
The fuel in the tank helps cool the fuel pump, if the level gets too low the pump can overheat, shortening its life.
the fuel actually lubricates the fuel pump.
The sounds those cars made when he was refueling
Today we are going wait till we get to zero miles
Fuel pump:😢
This kind of video is fun to watch... keep going man!!!
had a 2005 dodge magnum rt 5.7 hemi years ago and it ran out of gas on me with the trip computer saying I had 7 miles left til empty!
4th word 'bout summed it up... ;)
I did this test on my F150 not by choice and when I fueled soon after reaching 0 miles I put gas on my truck expecting 36 gals at the pump and it was more like 33-34 until full, so it lead me to believe there's a 3 gal "reserve" when you hit 0 til empty.
I've never hit 0 miles til empty, more like 10-15 miles til empty and I've never had to pump over 30 gallons...
On my 2020 I have the 23 gallon tank. I have hit 0 MTE three times. On pourpose (took me a while to work up to it). When I fuel up it cuts off before 22 gallons. Watching this video the reserve capacity is probably 2.5 gallons, in the 23 gallon tank. Which I consider 22 since I don’t ever want to drive on 0 MTE😊
I did this with my then new 2007 F150 Lariat (5.4L V8)... I also made it well past 40 miles... conked out going up hill, near sea level. So I thought I had plenty of margin the day I drove it to zero miles after driving to Albuquerque from Lubbock. Made it maybe 2 miles past zero and it died. Fortunately a gas station was in walking distance... but keep in mind... when driving in mountainous areas, and/or higher elevation - YMMV. :) Side note, my F150 just hit 235,000 miles... and still going strong. Love my F150! Thanks for the vlog!
I knew about exactly how far you were going to go. I have a 2014 f150 5.0 (36 gal) 4x4 3.55 diff. And my drive home from work is 30 mi, I knew there were gas stations on my way home so I didn't care much. But I did my drive home and drove to the gas station the day after on 0 to E, also was below freezing outside, a little nerve racking but i was impressed. The 5.0 is a lot more fuel sipping than people think. I average about 20 mpg vs my 2012 3.5 which averaged maybe 15. Can't wait to see what it will be like with the 10 speed.
👍🏻👍🏻
"...and I gotta piss...."
I did.. I think I pissed out the same amount of the reserve tank in the truck haha
auto blog lol
16:00 - "Come on, Truck. I love you, but you gotta give up at some point."
The crazy things you'll do for your videos. Good job man, good job! Another reason to love this truck!
i am super !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!impressed you can drive freaking 50 miles in a 5 liter V8.this is insane
Agreed ! I was very surprised !
Joachim Lotz in overdrive, your engine doesn't have to do much.
Increase mpg and lose towing max capacity...
Joachim Lotz
So Ford is going on this ecoboost thing for nothing
Joachim Lotz New technology haha
This was hilarious lol.. Your commentary had me rolling for some reason! Man, I have a fx2 Ecoboost and I ran out of gas with 45miles till empty only because it was back in my driveway and its a slant so all the fuel was forward in the tank.
then you shouldn't have ran out, classically the fuel line is in the front of the pump so when its slanted downhill with the nose down it can still drink whatever is in the tank, ive only ever seen a truck fail to start or run out of fuel when it still had some gas in the tank when the grill was at a 60 degree angle higher then the bed
Edward Z Norton my ecoboost has the same issue: when the truck is angled nose-down, my fuel gauge is significantly lower; when the truck is angled ass-down, my fuel gauge is significantly higher
@@mq9047 then someone messed up somewhere, or ford are idiots. In most trucks that's reversed, nose down, fuel gauge higher, ass down fuel gauge lower, I've never personally seen it how your describing it
Note: Once the car has run out of gas, you can still drive normally at many tens of miles. However, we don't recommend you to drive when gas fuel is empty, as doing so may result in car fuel injection stops working or even permanently damages it.
That was seriously the funniest video I've watched on RUclips in years. I laughed so dang hard watching the agony on his face.
There is a Seinfeld episode where Kremar does the same thing.
ProtoMario why are you here your a pokemon RUclipsr
I remember that lol
Top ten anime discoverys
That's good to know. Once I hit 0 miles on I-90 between Buffalo and Gillette Wyoming and went about 35 miles on 0. Thank God I made it to Gillette! It was a Chevy Suburban too! In Wyoming there is a town every 100 miles or so!
lol !
Born in Gillette
Ayyyy #billsmafia
I've told all of my customers that "0 miles to empty" in a Ford really means "you have 50 miles to get to a fueling station." I got an F-150 with a 36 gal. tank off the convoy one day that just hit '0'. When I filled it, it only took 33.48 gal. Must've calculated that based on the rating it was getting, it needed 2.52 gal. to go 50 miles.
Your right brother i thought everyone knew that those fuel lights always ment you had 50 miles to get to gas stations otherwise youll run outta gas. now the miles till empty could be the same reasoning or assumption but then why would they have the low fuel light or chime on before the miles to empty. but all in all you generally have 50 miles in most cars when you hit the low fuel light and or 0 miles till empty.
Ran my Ram Ecodiesel once 902 miles on a 26 gal tank. Was $hittn bullets, went to 0 as I drove into a station. Guess I shouldn't have been so stressed.
49.1 mpg ,IT'S A KEEPER 😆😆😆😆😆👍👍👍👍👍
Awesome channel, thank you for trying these experiments in the name of science.
👍🏻👍🏻
In the name of science bs. Nothing like intentionally creating a dangerous situation.
You must not know your father

I am a guy who does long distance vehicle pick ups for a Ford Dealer in Jersey. I have been from Jersey to Boston area and as far south as Virginia to pick up vehicles. Some dealerships fill up the tanks and then there are others that give me cars and trucks with 0 miles to empty Preston Hurlock Maryland among others. My dealership gives me an Exxon card and try finding an Exxon Station in some of these areas. So I really appreciate this video. Well done!
This was actually very informative because i drive these at work all day!
I was guessing that it wouldn't make it anywhere pass 15 miles
That was awesome! Thank you for the boldness to do that, as that experience is very useful! Always wondered about how the distance on empty., thanks again, I'm impressed! 👍
👍🏻👍🏻
As someone who recently changed out my gas tank in my F150 , going from a 23 gal tank to a 36 gallon, I could of answered this question. I got my tank down to zero and pulled the tank and it still had almost five gallons in it. Which would translate to around 100miles of range on an empty tank in highway driving.
as someone who recently bought a Ford your channel is very informative.
This is a great video to procrastinate sleeping with at 2am
Incredible! i have a 1994 F-150 5.8 so this test would end so fast!
lol..
But yet again, I have dual tanks... If both are empty I'd go nowhere lol
I have the 6.8 v10....
My 94 F350 7.3 IDI turbo has dual tanks as well but these trucks can can be hard to start after air gets in the fuel system from Running out of fuel.
I was actually looking into the F350 but I live in California so gas would run me dry. Looked for the regular 5.0 but found a GOOD 5.8 swap, torque converter, new dif, suspension, and a few motor mods and man at a little over 400HP this thing is no joke! As well i only get 12 mpg at most
Reminds me of that Seinfeld episode where Kramer test drives a new car and convinces the salesman to see how far they can go with the gas gauge on E!
It's the office admission mentioned that when you have gas in the gas can you got to have a long spout otherwise you cannot get it in your tank
18:23 F1 formulas passing by 😀
Very impressive! I love your channel man!
Thank you !
I'm late to this video, but I am glad you made this video. I freaked out when there was no station around in a dark country road and I was in panic mode. But the station was about ten miles and I didn't understand what was going on the truck kept going. Lol. But this video brought me back to it. Thanks for the info.
We took the beartooth highway out of Yellowstone in our F150. We were really nervious when the range kept dropping through the high pass. The range went to 0 about 10 miles outside of Red Lodge. We were happy it was all down hill from there. It seems we were fine based on this video.
I did the same thing to my 15’ 2.7 and when mine hit 0. I’ve done your same thing, I managed to get 78 miles when hit 0 and my average MPG was 30.3
The more you’re on the throttle the more it’s gonna consume fuel. You have to be efficient to get accurate results. You were just burning through fuel passing people when you didn’t even have to just stay the same steady speed and maximize the MPG
It really disturbs how many moronic drivers, who had all the room and time in the world, didn't move over for you into the left lane when they could clearly see you standing there fueling your truck. The Move Over Law should not just apply to emergency vehicles stopped in the shoulder, but ALL vehicles stopped in the shoulder. It's common sense!
Ford could put the filler neck on the other side! I mean it's no biggy what side it's on when at the gas pump, but if you need to pull over like this and gas up with a jerry can, why can't you stand opposite of traffic when pulled to the shoulder right?
I’ve done it with my 2014 Toyota RAV4. My range hits 0 around 20 miles after my gas light comes on. I did it during the lockdowns because I was waiting for the price of fuel to bottom out during the lockdowns last year. Although I let my car sit for a lot of it and only used it sparingly for 2 months for trips to Office Depot for school supplies. One time I went to get school supplies and my car wouldn’t start in my driveway. It was out of gas at 67 miles after the gas light came on which is the equivalent of 47 miles on 0 range. There was probably also some varnish in the tank from letting my car sit. The furthest I’ve pushed it was 78 miles after the gas light came on (58 miles on 0 range) and second farthest was 74 after the gas light came on when I went 510.3 miles on a single tank driving on flat terrain in New Jersey and Delaware and rolling hills in Pennsylvania
I rented a 20 ranger and I was impressed with it , in the Covid time, I’m buying it once I have money .
Thank God it had a V8!
thanks for the test. good to know. my wife always freaks when I'm on empty. ;)
👍🏻
At least you were smart enough to bring gas with you. Good video.
😮 I have a 2010 F-150 Lariat 4 by 4 and I have zero miles left so that was very informative for me so now I know I can go to work and get the money and go gas up thank you very much😅
I Got the f150 sport super crew 4x4 with the 5.0 it’s awesome just love it.
your editing is getting so much better
Thanks :)
Most newer vehicles are designed this way. When the gas gauge reads empty, or it tells you "0" miles to empty, it really isn't. There is more like 2-5 gallons left. They do this for a few reasons. To keep the fuel pump cool and lubed with the oil in the gas, even when the gauge reads empty, and to make sure you get gas before the tank is actually empty. The fuel pump and strainer sit on the very bottom of the tank, while the float for the fuel level is about an and inch or two above the bottom of the tank when it is empty.
Now, you already mentioned the comments, but it can lead to premature fuel pump failure if you constantly do this, but one time may not hurt anything.
you're getting amazing has mileage on your 5.0 v8! our 2012 honda pilot has a 3.5l v6 and it gets 18 mpg at best!
It's funny to me how stressed out you get by this
Well if you were driving on empty you would get stressed as well. It's just natural 👍🏼
Definitely a stressful situation. After finishing work, dash showed 0 miles to empty and the closest petrol station was 2 miles away. Did a lot of short shifting, coasting and switching the engine off at each stop just to get to the petrol station. NEVER AGAIN.
@JKirkrms6 Yeah, I was told it used more gas to turn off and turn on your engine than to just sit idle.
@JKirkrms6 no, its more fuel efficient to shut your engine off rather than idling it after like 10 seconds of idling. Source: I'm not sure take this with a grain of salt
@@emil.soderholm no. More wear and tear on the engine starter, and lubrication system...
No need to drive to empty. A good estimate for miles before running out of gas for ANY vehicle is: Fill up your gas tank, reset your tripometer before you leave the gas station. Once you get close to E. Take the tank size (provided by your user manual) divided by the average mpg for the tank if you're close to E (provided by your tripometer) to determine how many miles you should be able to drive on that current tank of fuel then subtract your actual miles driven ( also provided by your tripometer) from that number to determine the miles remaining (fairly accurate).
From more recent cars I've had, the fuel remaining past "0"gallons remaining was around 2.2 gallons. Your truck died at 2.3 gallons past E which is reasonably close to what you would have gotten with the calculation probably.
Good to know, they should advertise using a Police chase "Never run out of gas". Love the F150 cluster, a thing of beauty
Your truck is like the Energizer bunny.
Lin Hunnicutt :D
lol !
+Lin Hunnicutt Yup, it's definitely GAY. But, at least it's not a pink truck. LOL
Awesome vid. Ford trucks rule! I could feel your apprehension as you went further and further. 🚘
Greg Hamblin dodge is better lol. I'm just messing with you (even though it's true )
toyota rules
Andy S Chevy? Really? I think you need to see a doctor if you like Chevy 🤣
Ford people are reatarded
That's why Ford says "Go further".
Been trying to figure this out as well. Took mine down to 6 MTE then completely filled with 30.9 gallons in a 36 gallon tank.
Good to know - I have a ‘16 XLT 4x4 with the 5.0 with the 36 gal tank, routinely get 1300 km out of a tank. Good truck!
L.M.A.O. 😂😂, that was awesome 👍👏🙌. I enjoy watching your videos🎥.
Thanks :)
I made it to Steubenville from Robinson in my Expedition with a zero to empty. I'm not paying your crazy Pennsylvania prices for gas! Lol
Legend has it he had an empty jerrycan, and he can still be found driving around North America trying to get it to run out of gas. In 20 years we will still see him driving the highways.......😆👍🏻
That's about right. In my 3.7 MDX I drove about 110 kms (~70 miles) after "zero" was displayed. I bet it could go further, but I didn't want to run the fuel pump completely dry, so I stopped at a gas station.
I love these trucks so much.
Me too !
There are people who are disgusted in owning one of those trucks with a passion. I owned several ford trucks.
I just don't see why people hate fords
Really bad experiences
IA 7
I think it's new stuff in general.
I got the shop 2016 f250 stuck in snow ,and cause of the stupid computer delay you can't rock it out by going forward/reverse ...
at least with an auto trans , even with the traction control off.
When the tires break loose, and you lift and hit the brakes, the abs kicks in and takes 2 seconds to stop the wheels so you can put it into reverse without killing the trans.
rinse and repeat in reverse too, friggin impossible to rock it......
that's why I love the throttle cable so much in my 91 Jetta, I should marry it.
ironically, i watched the ford fusion video last night at like midnight! hahaha. this video is perfect timing.
👍🏻
I drove my 2017 3.5 EB 4x4 SCREW with a 36gal tank out of gas this week. Light came on a 50 miles to empty. I drove 53 miles AFTER it hit zero miles to empty before it ran out. Back calculated with my mpg and figure I had 2.66 gallons of gas left at zero. On the next fill, with 3 extra clicks on the pump, the total capacity of my tank and lines is 37.9 gallons *over 800 mile range on highway)
Thank you sir for sharing this experimental on yours own risk as well as on your own car for us. You are so brave.
Thank you 👍👍👍👍👍👍
218 fuel pumps dont like this video
576 now
Its called FORD TOUGH for a reason LOL!!!!
👊
XB Mario few days later the fuel pump fails FORD TOUGH LMFAO
AutoVlog did your fuel pump fail days after this experiment? I ask because my mechanic has replaced several fuel pumps on f150's
You could probably eek out at least a few more miles by turning on your cruise control at 60 - 65 or so and just chilling. The computer does a better job at using the gas efficiently than your foot can
A few things.. generally the fuel meter is calibrated to a value around the x Liter per 100km value (it is an estimated OEM value). For example, one car model from a certain OEM was calibrated to -20L on "empty" when we set it up. Though, the older the car the more inaccurate the sensor element becomes. Like my current car, 20 years old, I can still drive like 200-250km when the fuel warn lamp goes active.. With moderate driving the average goal is to reach between 50km and 100km which should be plenty to reach the next gas station unless you are in the furthest hinterlands.
Next factor is your petrol pump, especially if the car is older they may not empty out the entire tank anymore. And a fair warning, especially if the car is older: if you drive it to empty you risk to get the dirt that may have collected over the years on the bottom pumped into the fuel system. Yes, there is a filter that prevents the engine to get affected (much), but the lines before the filter can become clogged and the lifetime of the filter may be greatly impacted.
Good result Mike next time will be amg c63 ;-))
lol
I highly doubt Mike would to that test on a brand new AMG C63s ;)
(at least not right away)
20:43 there's a Ford Excursion😂😍😇
Wow is all I can say! My 2018 f150 went to 0 km's today and I drove it 5 more kilometers and got gas right away and now I feel like a fool. Great video!
I bet ppl looking at him like " haha another ford on the side of the road".. this is a great video I love these trucks. I just got a 2022 f150 2.7 ecoboost and I'm sure it's around the same on a reserve tank
I'm not a truck person...at all...but that's a good looking truck! I'd drive that! Love your channel bud.
Thank you sir !
AutoVlog please reply
Hey bro just to inform u, fords r the worst trucks out there and the r horrible trucks
"I have to piss"...chugs drink lol
Meanwhile in movies and TV shows, the fuel light comes on AFTER the car has run bone dry.
With the exception of Seinfeld of course.
If you have dropped a fuel tank in the last 15 years you will notice there is a bowl around the pump pickup. its purpose is to hold enough fuel to keep the pump cool and lubricated in low level fuel situations. That buffer you used up and miles to empty are a design flaw to keep you from you frying your fuel pump.Not saying your pump in the truck you have is cooked but probably is bruised.Just mentioning I have seen it on early fuel injected engines running a quarter tank weekly pump failures at low mileage. the new fuel systems are returnless relying on the internal relief in the pump to maintain a constant pressure and coupled with the ecm can vary the fuel pump speed. That is what the fuel pump module above the spare tire in the F150 is for.That is why it has a "reserve" of fuel .The amperage and the heat build up from the load the pump experiences. Also for emmisions. The older fuel injection systems had a constant loop system heating the gas above the ambient temperature causing return heated fuel from the engine to return to the gas tank. This causes excessive fuel vapor .The old system had a charcol cannister that was vented to the air. Anyways my point is to consider a quarter tank empty and youre fuel pump will last a lot longer than you own youre vehicle.Sorry pulling wrenches 35 years seen a bit.
"cero miles" guy was never taught the letter Z lololol
