Why was Japan's attack on Indochina upsetting to the US?
Now, I assume you mean why the Japanese were angry at the Americans during World War II? If so, it was because, at the turn of the 20th century, the Japanese faced rapid modernization and militarization. They had goals of conquering colonies to have a large empire like what the Western world was doing. Because Japan is an island nation, its resources are limited. Prior to WWII, the Japanese needed sufficient fuel for their warships, planes, and transportation, as well as oil and steel. To solve this problem, the Japanese wanted to attack the United States in order to acquire ample resources. This eventually led to the attack on Pearl Harbor and the U.S. entering WWII.

Did the Japanese navy run out of fuel during world war 2?
Yes, fuel was in very short supply for Japan's military & civilian sectors the entire war. By 1944, Japanese ships were stationed closer to the supplies of oil in the Dutch East Indies & British Malaya. The Japanese Navy began using unrefined oil instead of refined fuel oil for its ships. This caused mechanical problems for these ships, however the Japanese had to do this because of the shortage of fuel. The Japanese had a shortage of oil production & refining facilities, a shortage of oil tankers to move oil & fuel around, and a lack of understanding of modern military logistics.
