Fuel Gage
When the ignition is on, the
fuel gage tells you about
how much fuel you have
left in your tank.
The gage will first indicate E (empty) before you are out
of fuel, and you should get more fuel as soon
as possible.
Listed are four situations you may experience with your
fuel gage:
D
At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before the
gage reads F (full).
D
It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
fuel gage indicated. For example, the gage may have
indicated the tank was half full, but it actually took a
little more or less than half the tank’s capacity to fill
the tank.
D
The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or
speed up.
D
The gage doesn’t go back to E (empty) when you
turn off the ignition.
None of these indicate a problem with the fuel gage.
