Sitting idling in a parking lot on a level surface I ran out of fuel. The low fuel light was not on and hadn't been on. I expected it to be on any minute. The light did work when I cycled the key. I walked 100 yards to the gas station. Found an empty Def jug. I put some diesel in and walked back. Filled the tank and cycled the key 3 or 4 times. No joy. Cycled the key a couple more times and that did the trick. There is no doubt in my mind I ran out of fuel. 1.5 gallons in the Def and 15.7 at the pump. Obviously I need to fill up earlier but the no light thing is disconcerting. The previous tank the light was on for only 30 miles. I've gone as far as 75 with the light. My next stop was the gas station a tenth of a mile away. Car failed to start after my part time job. Good thing I work at an auto auction complete with gas truck.
