in your car there are 2 fuel level sensor under the car. 1 might be sticking causing the car to read 1/2 tank when it is empty. OR since the tank is a hump setup it could be that the fuel pump is going out casuing only half of the tank to provide fuel. the fuel pump is used todraw a siphon to drain both side of the tank.
