My check gage light flashes for no apparent reason bewteen 3/4 and a full tank. The gas gage seems to jump around a bit in until it gets down to 3/4 as well. It also runs a bit rough ... I'm not convinced this is related.
The check engine light is not on and there are no codes. The only thing I can think of is the gas cap. I've seen that there are some TSB but with no codes it's hard to pin anything down.
