    I don't place my fetishes anywhere near you, you'd probably label them wrong anyways. Didn't you call that "hot blond girl" a "hot blind girl" a little while ago?? :cool:

    I bought an S-10 with a 4.3 V6 in the late 90's from a guy that told me he always ran the truck past empty..and always had problems with the fuel pump...replacing 3 pupms as a matter of fact and never could figure out why he was having problems? DUH...Well wouldnt you kinow it...It happened to me when I bought it from him, and after 2 fuel pumps and no luck I started to look further...( I was doing the work myself BTW) Found out that the wiring harness running from the top of the carriage to the fuel pump had gotten so HOT ( from running it low) that it started to melt the contact ends and the wiring! Went to a salvage yard ..found a harness and Presto! Not a problem more...

    So ..It is true that running your fuel level low is NOT a good thing..IT WILL HURT IT!

    Fuel cools the pump and all electrical inside your tank!

    So....PUT SOME DAM GAS IN IT! LOL and Ride!

    So you're saying that the Tacoma has a 21.1 gallon, 80 liter, 80 litre tank, and the fuel pump pulls from the bottom of the tank, and needs fuel flowing through it to keep the bearings in it from overheating?
    And the fuel gauge is inaccurate and lies to us to we fill the tank before it is truly empty?
    Why didn't you just say so?
    And where can I get a larger gas tank that fits, so I can actually go 500 miles on a trip before having to stop?
