As BGKAST said, run it down to the reserve light.

I had to replace my hoses, but I have a 12 gallon aluminium tank also. not WVO or any of that other stuff, but I hate stopping for fuel when we are on a long trip.

I ran it down to the light, then drove it a little longer. when I drained it I still had 7 gallons. not a big deal to drain it, but less fuel is better.
be sure to clean of the dirt and grim first so you don`t contaminate your fuel if you are going to reuse.

Also good time to check your tank screen as long as you are that far into it.
