Thanks for the experience sharing, I'll try it next time (hope it is not happening too soon), save me $300.
I just refueled the tank 1 mile before the pump went bad. I guess it would be very heavy with 26 gallon gas in there. At least the shop I went put every drop back. The dealer who replaced my leaky tank when it's new vaporized 1/3 of the tank.

Mine marked 1/4 and it was empty.. It took almost 8 gallons to get it started once it died..
It might be a bad fuel pump. I also suggest changing to a Magnaflow Car Catalytic Converter Accessories just to be on the safe side as it could've gotten some damage when the fuel pump went bad/dead. I'm an old guy and my methods may be a little high on the cost, but I dislike having anymore difficulties in the near future.

For now ignore the 0420 code unless it comes back after erasing it. It is likely a reactionary response to the sudden leaned out condition of low fuel pressure. It created a gaseous anomaly in the exhaust system.
