FYI, it has been said that keeping your tank full will also keep the pumps cooler and more efficient and last longer, because the pumps are submerged in the fuel. And if you always like to run on a low tank, the pumps are not submerged and therefore build up heat because the fuel is not keeping them cool causing them to wear out faster.

After hearing this info, it makes good sense. Just passing it along!!!
