my gas indicator is really off...

#1 Unread post by VermilionX »

ok last time it lit up after 82 miles... filled it up and i actually only used 2.5 gallons.

now it lit up again at 210 miles... filled up, only used 2.7 gallons.

my full tanks is 4.8 gallons, so it seems like the warning goes off after half the tank is used.

at least it's consistent, so next time, i know that once it lights up, i still have half or less than half left.

210-82 = 128 miles for 2.7 gallons... WOW! that's not so bad for 1000cc engine.
