1993 CADILLAC ELDORADO Gas tank

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Fuel Gage
Your fuel gage shows about how much fuel is in your tank. It works only
when the ignition is
in the “RUN” position.
Digital Gage
If the fuel level is within approximately one gallon (3.9 liters) of being full
the letter “F” is shown.
If the fuel level
is between 1 and 2 gallons (3.9 and 7.6 liters) from being
empty the letter
“E” is shown. If the fuel supply gets down to
approximatcly 1 gallon (3.9 liter) the ”E” will flash, and the “ FUEL
LEVEL VERY LOW” message will appear
in the Driver Information
Center (DIC). (On the analog
fuel gage, the “FUEL LEVEL VERY
LOW’’ message will
also appear.)
Here are a few concerns some owners have had about the fucl gage. All
these situations are normal and indicate nothing wrong with the fuel
gage.
0 At the gas station, the gas pump shuts off before the gage reads “F”.
It takes more (or less) gas to fill up than the gage said. For example,
the gage said “8 Gallons”? but it took morc -- or less -- than the tank’s
remaining capacity
to fill it.
The gage changes when you turn (or stop, or speed up).

If you plan on driving in another country outside the U.S. or Canada,
unleaded fuel may be hard to find.
Do not use leaded gasoline. If you use
even one tankful, your emission controls won't work well or at all. With
continuous use, spark plugs can get fouled, the exhaust system can
corrode, and your engine
oil can deteriorate quickly. Your vehicle's
oxygen sensor will be damaged. All of that means costly repairs that
wouldn't be covered by your warranty.
To check on fuel availability, ask an auto club, or contact a major oil
company that does business in the country where you'll be driving.
You can also write us at the following address
for advice. Just tell us
where you're going and give your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).

the cap inside the fuel
door.
To take off the cap, turn it slowly to the left (counterclockwise).

A CAUTION:
If you get gasoline on you and then something ignites it, you
could be badly burned. Gasoline can spray out
on you if you
open the fuel filler cap too quickly. This spray can happen if
your tank is nearly full, and
is more likely in hot weather. Open
the fuel filler cap slowly and wait for any “hiss” noise to stop.
Then unscrew tht ap all the
1 y.
When you put the cap back on, turn it to the right until you hear a
clicking noise.
