Default Hard start with low fuel

Anyone have any ideas why my 96 Civic LX would have a hard time starting, but only when it's low on fuel? It seems to do fine any other time, but when the fuel gets low it chokes a little bit before it starts. Do I need to look into a new fuel pump? Any ideas on what's going on with this?

Default RE: Hard start with low fuel

welcome to the forum, check your fuel rail pressure when the tank is low. Also might check it when the tank is full,If you have a fuel filter, might check this also.
