Don't you love it, when you've got a reasonable sized reserve, and when you switch it, you go, "Hmmm... must fill that up soon; maybe tomorrow morning on the way to work", and then you forget? And then it starts coughing and spluttering a few days later, and you go to switch it to reserve, and...
Or you don't have reserve, just the Red LED Of Doom, and you go, "Hmmmm.... I'll fill up on the way home", but you're tired, and the gas station is too busy, so you don't. Then in the morning, you're running late, and it's threatening to rain, so you go, "Hmmm... I've got enough to get to work; I'll fill up at the Shell after work". And then you forget, so you go, "Hmmm.... I don't want to turn back; I'll carry on to the BP - should be enough to go another couple of km."
EHHHH!!! WRONG!! (cough, splutter, backfire, fart, cough, hasty U-turn, cough, fart, DIE...

)
Not that I've ever experienced any of these scenarios.
But it would be funny, eh?
