Low Fuel Message

Hey, Guys I'm back with another question. Just above 1/4 tank I'm getting a low fuel message that comes on. I don't remember this comming on so soon in the past. Any suggestions? BTW I was on here for water in fuel and someone gave the suggestion to clean the sensor in the filter housing with carb cleaner and it worked great. Thank you for that.

Thank You,

Might have been the attitude the truck was in at the time..... At or near 1/4 tank is just plenty of warning to get 'er filled! You DO NOT want to run this truck out of fuel. Injectors are danged expensive!
