It happened to me at Auto-X one time at around 1/4 tank, much harder driving and the cut was only a couple of seconds. This time the cut was permanent.
Yes, I tried shutting the car completely down and starting again but it made no difference. It would try to start but fail. I think perhaps if I was level ground it would have helped but pointing uphill is apparently a problem.
I only considered the sender because I broke mine in my old G35. Bent the rod that the float attaches to from excessive g-forces. The gauge got stuck at half tank, when the car started to splutter and noticed I had gone nearly 500 miles on a tank of gas I knew there was a problem.
