Ran outta gas at half tank?

1966 C10 with 350 chevy engine

Last week i was driving around at 1/4 tank before stopping to refuel. this week i've run "outta gas" at half tank (luckily it was right down the street from my house!). Anyone else had this problem? what was the issue?

after running out, i dumped a few gallons of gas into the tank and poured some in the carb and it fired right up.

the previous owner installed a new sending unit / float in the old gas tank (it looks new visually) - he said the tank was flushed as well. (but who knows)

what's the check list i should be following?
