Do you have dual tanks?? My 80 with duals did this a year ago. I had just filled the left tank and was switched over to it (I thought) BUT, there was a short in the switch over circuit that defaulted to the Right Hand Tank!! Which was EMPTY!! Cost me 180 bucks of stupid money to have the best mechanic in town put 5 gallons in and start it up. AND he had me go get the 5 gallons!!

Check your switch and wires!!
