Is it harmful to run on low gas?

You won't pick up sediment at the bottom of yout tank because the pump suction line is at the bottom. That statement would be valid if there was a suction line at the top of the tankt rather than the bottom. I ran out of gas with 2 led's on and the car woudn't start up (started going up a long hill....so embarassing lol). Also a reminder!!! If your car shuts off at that low of fuel and it doesn't fire up when starting it, push the button again to turn it off, othewise it will keep trying to start itself and you will burn up the injectors.
