Ive read that the engine being sluggish when on a low tank is due to a worn out and ready to go lift pump?
My 300D does the same, when nearing low tank it loses some power and idle gets a little rougher. I think it was reid (dieseldiehard) who was telling me it might be a wearing lift pump.
cant remember who told me or where i read it exactly.....
