The 1966 Mustang I owned in the early 1980's "E" meant empty on the mark. My sister found this out while driving my car, I told her before I handed her the keys that the first stop would be the gas station as it was on empty. I had been yelling at her to get gas as she passed station after station but she kept arguing with me. We ran out of gas in front of a gas station five minutes later and we all piled out to push the car into the gas station. She still would not admit that I was right, just like a woman, hey?
The Diesel Golf I owned in the mid/late 1980's "E" meant get fuel in the next day or two.
Low gas is a bad idea on my S-10, those $600 Delphi fuel pumps need a lot of gas to keep cool and to stay lubricated.

That was the one thing I hated dealing with as a Diesel owner. It was like driving an electric car and having range anxiety.
