Thanks for posting - I think everyone will want to know how you care for your car so they could avoid purchasing it when you sell. All those warnings about how the fuel pump is cooled by the fuel and also the fact that sediment is picked up by having the tank run dry makes one wonder what you really think about maintaining ones vehicle.

Some folks record data, don't they? I have friends that are OCD (no inference here) and have some odd quirks like only eating two french fries at once or separating the broken Doritos from the whole ones after opening a bag or sorting a bag of jelly beans into colors. :roll eyes:
"Not that there's anything wrong with that" you understand. Talking about gas prices; in 1965 when I was awarded my Driver's License, regular gasoline was something like 34 cents a gallon, and some fella with a bow tie pumped it for you, checked the oil, tire pressures, washed the windshield and likely gave you a bunch of stamps to put in a book to get some kind of merchandise.
Actually, being 16 years old kinda sucked.

yeah, our receptionist had a never-ending bowl at the front lobby area. There was a conference room immediately adjacent to it that we used often so I "had" to walk right past that bowl.
I don't work in that office anymore, but continued to enjoy peanut M&Ms, a bit to excess... So one day I cold turkey stopped. Thing is, I still probably have 6+ full bags (pound size) in my desk drawer...

Last I checked, Mark is a grown man, makes and spends his "OWN" money. If he wants to run his car dry and ultimately help someone that may accidently run their car dry, then I'm sure this will come in handy when Someone googles it. Thanks for the graphs and thorough write ups.
