Both my V8Q's only take a little over 17 gallons at the bottom of the
gauge, so you've got at least 3 gallons before you're in the dead zone. 
Shouldn't run it this low too often, the fuel acts as a coolant for the
pump,  theoretically reduces the life of the fuel pump running it close
to the wall too often.

There are two types of tragedies in life. One is not getting what you
want, the other is getting it.
