I think my gas gauge might be messed up?? I ususally get 60 miles to every quarter mark, now its reading i have right at 100 miles on a quarter mark, theres no way i got that kinda gas mileage?? Maybe itll even out or something?? Sometimes its like that after the half-way mark, never before it though
Also two more non-realated question
1: The past few morinings have been pretty cold here (freezing temp or below) and my check gauge light comes on in the morning when i start her up. its the oil pressure gauge its stuck all the way down...Once i start driving itll come on and stay where its supposed to be...Well the thing is its been PLENTY cold this winter and it just started 2 days ago doing this??? ANYone know why???
QUESTION 2:: How can you check to see if mythermostat is stuck open WITHOUT physical examination?? Ive heard people say there truck will take like 30 minutes before the gauge reads where its supposed to....Mine ranger takes about 5 minutes before the gauge is where it should be, is that stuck open????
