Fuel vacuum?

I’ve noticed that the engine becomes more restless/jumpy as the tank gets near empty (<11 litres). I’m thinking along the lines that too much of a vacuum is being created and reducing the injection pressure. Is this possible or am I imagining things?

LOL [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/grin.gif[/image] its gets restless and jumpy cause its so much lighter with no fuel !! Thats why it says refill when it gets to 11 Litres to keep the weight balance correct [image]http://www.exiges.com/ubb/NonCGI/images/icons/wink.gif[/image]
