Stranded on the freeway twice in one month (fuel starvation)

On the 15 onramp it probably only about 25 through the actual turn and then only got up to 50-ish when fuel starvation kicked in (a few seconds after the initial turn). Was really surprised on this one as it wasn't that hard of a turn.

On the 71 onramp it was probably 30-35-ish and same thing heavy acceleration after that up to about 65 and then fuel starvation (although that one was banking right).

I definitely will be a lot more careful when am under 1/2 tank now. I think the significant factor in whether or not its recoverable once it starts is if are going uphill at all or not. Even a slight amount uphill seems to make it irrecoverable without adding more gas in it.

In the 3 years I have had the car ive only had fuel starvation happen 3 times on the public road (twice on the track) and only two of these (on the road) actually resulted in getting stranded.

Filling up every-time the gas tank is <1/2 tank just to avoid this is kind of ridiculous though. I will likely just be more careful when its under 1/2 tank to avoid it from happening.

Still not cool though Nissan...
