Fuel nozzles used by the public have back-pressure sensing valves which cut them off if the back pressure on the nozzle increases by a small amount. This is intended to sense a full tank, but fuel splashing back from a narrow fuel entry can be enough to switch the nozzle off.

First of all you have to find out how much gasoline can fit in the fuel tank. Then go to your local gas station (e.g Shell, Esso, etc.) and fill up the tank all the way.Then subtract the total amount of fuel that can fit in the tank from how much liters you filled and you get your total amount of fuel that is on the low fuel. For example if 100 liters of fuel can fit in the tank and you filled 82 liters than that is 12 liters of fuel left.
The best way to find out for sure is to fill up as soon as the light comes on. Subtract that amount from the amount of fuel that the tank holds when full and the answer is how much fuel is left when the light comes on.
