If I can't beat the distance, it's better for me to fill sooner and use less fuel. Also, less possibility of stressing the dry fuel pump.

I have a "hesitation" on restart when down below 2 gallons left. I have to bumpstart and let the engine stabilize a bit longer before I can let the clutch out and pulse again. If I bumpstart then let the clutch out right away the engine will die for an instant.
