It also means that as the fuel level drops the engine will starve

No, it won't. The pickup is towards the bottom of the tank. Your engine
might die if the pickup can't get the last drop, but, since it's a
pressurized system these days, that shouldn't happen.


So the fuel is still cooling the pump until it has no more fuel. I stand by
my statements.

eXCEPT ON THOSE WHERE THE PUMP IS NOT ONLY COOLED BY FUEL RUNNING
THROUGH IT, BUT BY THE PUMP BEING FULLY SUBMERGED.
