It knows it's low on gas from the sending unit.

When your car starts loosing power, give it the beans and get enough speed. Better to coast as long as you can before you have to push.

The sending unit and pump are not directly related to one another as far as failure. How many miles are on the odometer? It becomes vary obvious if the pump was starting to go, as in a total lack of power, and a car that runs very poorly.

"All I know about music is that not many people ever really hear it. [...] But the man who creates the music is hearing something else, is dealing with the roar rising from the void and imposing order on it as it hits the air. What is evoked in him, then, is of another order, more terrible because it has no words, and triumphant, too, for the same reason. And his triumph, when he triumphs, is ours." -Sonny's Blues
