NEVER GET GAS if a tanker is dropping fuel at a station. It stirs up the sediment/water on the bottom if the tank and if the station doesn't change their filters regularly, then it ends up in your vehicle. Click here for Article
Wait for at least one day to get gas from that station (if you see a truck loading fuel) -- and try not to let your gas tank on your vehicle get to low – you will suck up sediment from the tank if you do -- glen
I also forgot to mention -- if you have a S/C they say not to push the boost if your low fuel light is on.

Do you pride yourself on getting every last drop of gas out of your gas tank before filling up? Cut it out.
Sediment from gasoline settles at the bottom of every gas tank. When you let your gas level run low, you force your car to use the dirtiest gas in its tank for fuel.
The lower your car's gas level sinks, the more the dirt gets stirred up from the bottom of the tank. Drive on a near-empty tank and you risk this dirt getting into your car's fuel line and even into the engine. There's a good chance your car's fuel filter won't be able to catch all of it, especially if you drive with a barely filled gas tank on a regular basis.
"You're going to pull the heaviest sediment into the fuel line," says Karl Brauer, editor-in-chief at
edmunds.com. "If it gets all the way to the engine, it could scar or damage internal parts of the engine."
