when do you run outa gas

I've run down to about 1/8 tank and was scared that it would start sucking air in the pump.
However, when I filled up, it was only 14.5 gallons. How many gallons does the tank hold? I thought it was about 17.
(I usually fill up at 1/2, which is 11 gallons)

i have a 97 z i always fill up on fridays with the gauge just above 3/4 of a tank and it takes about 11 gal a few times i have gone almost to E and it took just under 16 gal when full i can go back and forth to work all week wich is about 15 miles each way but as soon as that gauge goes below the 3/4 mark that gauge drops real fast

running out above 1/4 i would suspect the pickup or the float is not working correctly. could be a bent float arm from a previous pump install. if the bottom of the pickup canister gets plugged i would think it would run out with quite a bit of fuel still in the tank.

I think mine may have a dif fuel tank, mine did 17.5 when it was close to empty. That wasnt with the pump locked either, i always hold it the whole time. I just looked at how much was in there and was like "wtf?" I didnt spill out, leak nor stopped filling at any point....

99-02 tank is 16.9 93-98 is 15.5 i would say you were very very close to running out or you have a aftermark tank of some sort. or the station is ripping people off. wouldnt be the first time.
