well, lets see, pull your dash and check the bulb, that would be where i start and i say your running it that low because you can kill your fuel pump, it needs fuel covering it to cool, if not it runs hot and shortens its life, just so you know

also could pull the pump and level sender assembly and make sure the level is down as far as it can go like the tank was empty and have a friend turn the key on and see if the light comes on, i really think its fine seeing that your gas gauge still probably works
