Its not good to run your car out of gas, it could burn up the fuel pump. The lowest I will let my tank get is a 1/4 tank.

I've heard that running it low can wear them out quickly, but I've daily driven with my 255lph walb for about 4 years with no problems other than it wont use every drop of gas in the tank. I've used 10.5 gallons once but I had to coast into the station even though the tank holds "11.9" gallons. I consistently use 8.5-9 gallons without issues.

I had an 89 dx that didn't have one, my 91 si doesn't have one, my dad's 89 four door dx doesn't have one...I'd like to wire one up since I have a gsr cluster in my car.

All of mine have had one except the EFs. Even my '85 Accord had one. That was the SE-i, though. Top of the line, baby.

i agree with the fuel pump issue, just burns it out quicker. still last "forever" even running on E all the time.

Did you get ahold of Adam?

My FF LCAs and Type 2's came in yesterday also. I'm not procrastinating, though. I'm forced to wait on installing everything until I can source a parts car.

Hit him up again about it. He'll make things right. He's got a new guy running the HT pms and whatnot so he's working through some growing pains. I had an issue with him not responding recently, but Adam fixed it.
