I have heard that running my gas tank low can cause the the fuel pump to work harder to “pull” the fuel through itself, and when the level is low enough, the pump lacks sufficient cooling which can shorten it's life. If this is so, what can vehicle owners do to help extend the life of their electronic fuel pumps?
Maintain a fuel level of at least one-half of the tanks capacity. This may not always be possible, but the more fuel in the tank, the cooler the pump runs.
