I have heard from people that it isn’t good to go “as low as you can go” towards an empty tank as it has a possibility of sucking in sediment or debris from the bottom of the fuel tank and introducing it in your fuel injectors which will cause them to clog.

I had a 1990 Plymouth Grand Voyager. Just before it reached 200,000 miles the fuel pump gave out so I emptied and dropped the fuel tank. I completely wiped out the interior of the tank and there was no sediment whatsoever.

Back in the day a trucker told me that sediment can be a problem if you never let the gar get below 1/4 tank, as some people do. In any of my own fuel tanks which regularly go to “E” I’ve seen no crud.
