Occasionally when I get the tank really full, the meter bottoms out and the low fuel light comes on. After about 20 miles the meter goes to the top and is fine for the rest of the tank.

This happens to me coincidentally at Costco as well, but that's where I get my gas. I'm sure it is related to the flow rate and sensitivity of the pump's autoshutoff. My Costco regularly changes it's pump filters and uses detergent gasoline. Thank goodness for Costco gas!
