hey guys. still waiting on the transmission fund to grow so i can get back on the road. but while it is sitting ive been upgrading, cleaning everything.
ive always wondered why it only takes 20 bucks (8/9 gallons) to fill my gas tank when it is obviously not an 8 gallon tank. never really complained about it cuz i was getting decent milage and 20 bucks seemed alot better than 40.
but now that its sitting i figured i would try and fix the problem. im thinking the sending unit is bad, or the float is broken (or sunk).
when i fill the tank the pin goes past the full mark on the gauge (a good cm)
and i always refill the tank at 1/4 tank. i dont remember how many miles i was getting on the "full" tank, but it was decent.
any suggestions? anyone else have this problem?
all help or info is appreciated.
