My car starts sputtering when I have 1/4 tank or less. This has been happening since I reached 120,000 miles, so I guess I shouldn't complain - just keep the gas tank 1/2 full? Was wondering why this might be happening though.
Fuel pump is going weak
If you can fill up at the gas station with 11 or so gallons when this happens, your fuel gauge is just reading incorrectly. (assuming you have a 12 gallon tank on the car) I read something about the sensor inside the tank becomes fouled. My 97' Cavalier will run out of gas before it hits "E".
