flying for ever without fuel

Hello Captain Team.

If I am flying with the C-130 and emptiness the fuel tanks all engine shotdown, If I restart all engine  puting the Engine condition Levers in "Air Start", all engine work again.

I view the fuel configuration and all tank is empty, except the center tank, it always has arround 499 pound always. I set this one to 0, all engine shotdow, I restart again and all engine work. The center tank has 466 pound again.

What happened if I change the line in aircraft.cfg:
Center1=     0.00,   0.00,   0.00,   100.00,    0   // Flow
with:
Center1=     0.00,   0.00,   0.00,   0.00,    0   // Flow
or put this one in comment?
;Center1=     0.00,   0.00,   0.00,   100.00,    0   // Flow


Kindly
Carlos

Please consider that issue as reasonable simplification and do not restart engines puting the Engine condition Levers in "Air Start" after engines down due to dry tanks.
