Not saying it couldn't cause a problem. But based on doing it over and over and over and not having a problem, I would suggest occasionally running it down is a total non issue.

Needless to say, we see our share of dead and dying fuel pumps; one common denominator ones that have gone bad is people running the fuel level low repeatedly. Either Excellence or Panorama has mentioned the same observation; the pumps do not like being overheated.
