My car will run on fumes for miles!

Not mine. First time it coughs it dies and that's it right there. My old VW Bug, though, if it started missing you could pick up the front end and jiggle it around and enough gas would get into the fuel line to get to the next gas station. I admit it took two to pick up the front of the vehicle.

Well. When I say 'fumes' I just mean the gas gauge reads empty and the tank has a hollow sound when I rap on it to see If I can make it to the next station.

I've done it a few times and the nearest gas station is about 4 miles away.
