E
FUEL ONLY UNLEADED
The
fuel gage, when the
ignition is
on, tells you
about how much fuel you
have left in your tank. Listed are
four situations you may experience with your
fuel gage:
At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before the
gage reads FULL
(F).
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.
The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or
speed up.
The gage will first indicate EMPTY
(E) before you
are out of fuel, and you should get more fuel as soon
as possible.
The gage doesn't go back to EMPTY (E) when you
turn off the ignition.
None
of these indicate a problem with the fuel gage.
