When running out of fuel all the sludge from the bottom of the tank gets sucked up in the fuel pump, clogging the fuel lines and injectors. It could also burn out the fuel pump too. Do you have AAA or some form of roadside assistance? I would have your Tahoe towed to your mechanics garage to have the lines flushed and the pump replaced if it is faulty.
