Here are some things that some owners ask about. None
of these show a problem with your fuel gage:
D At the service station, the gas pump shuts off before
the gage reads full.
D It takes more (or less) fuel to fill up than the gage
indicated. For example, the gage may have indicated
half full, but it took more (or less) than half the
tank’s capacity to fill it.
D The gage moves up a little when you turn a corner,
speed up or make a hard stop.
D The gage doesn’t go back to empty when you turn
off the ignition.
