Fuel Gage
Your fuel gage shows
about how much fuel is in
your tank. When the
gage ®rst indicates
E (empty), you still have
about one or two gallons
(4 to 8 L) of fuel left in your
tank, but you need to
get more right away.Here are four concerns some owners have had about
the fuel gage. All these situations are normal and do not
indicate that anything is wrong with the fuel gage.·At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before the
gage reads F (full).
·It takes more (or less) fuel to ®ll up than the gage
reads. For example, the gage reads half full, but it
took more (or less) than half of the tank's
capacity to ®ll it.
·The gage moves a little when you turn, stop or
speed up.
·When you turn the engine off, the gage doesn't go
back to E (empty).
·It takes several minutes for the gage to read F (full)
after ®lling the tank.
