    Without going to a fuel cell is there a fix for this??
    Yep. Always have.
    My solution has been to make sure I don't go under 1/4 tank.

    How much fuel does it take to fill up from that point of starvation? Reason I ask, I never had a problem with the NX2000. However, I didn't use the factory gauge, I had a Stack system installed. The way I calibrated the gauge was to turn on the pump and empty the tank until it started to spit, then called that "zero". From there I'd add a gallon at a time to calibrate it to full (which came to about 10.5 gallons).

    So, you can probably do the same thing: pump out fuel until it starts to spit, then note that on the gauge and call it "zero". - GA

    Heehee. That would be assuming I have ever even messed with the tank and pump. I've never even taken the access cover off.
    I'm within 20 lbs of minimum weight with a 1/4 tank of gas (before it starves) so I've never considered messing with it.
