My 2003 Yukon wouldn't start the other day and was towed to the
dealer. They said that because it was parked on an incline for about
36 hours with a relatively low fuel level (but more than enough to
keep the low fuel warning light from coming on), the fuel pump in the
tank couldn't pump enough gas to get it going. After adding fuel, it
started and runs fine. Anyone else had this problem? Seems like a
poor design.

Same thing with my diesel Rocky F75. Got me in a little trouble a
couple of times, but the fuel filter has a manual pump on top of it
which can help.
