A gallon is more than enough to keep the pump cool and lubed (unless you make a hard long sweeping right and you get fuel starved)

It really depends, each car is different (fuel tank shape etc). The fuel pumps are pretty stout though. Pretty much what depoint said. All the people i worked with are picky people when it comes to cars. However they are automotive mechanics, some Master, or ASE certified. They always rag on people who keep their tank only a quarter tank full. But they are old school people. Cars are engineered with better knowledge than the older days
