Hello. Driving outside today in 90+ degree weather with AC turned on, the OBC indicated 18 miles in remaining fuel. As I turn onto a driveway (slightly angled, but not steep), the car stalled (Check Engine light turned on). Can this problem be attributed to the low fuel level? If so, what damage can be done by running out of gas? Is the fuel pump a ticking time bomb now? The car is a 2001 325. Should I bring it in for service?
