Low Fuel Warning

Mr. Q · 04-12-2011, 08:09 PM

Last Friday I went to go eat at a place that was about 25 miles away from home with a range of 78 miles left, at about the 64 mile range I got a warning light and decided to slow down from 80 to 70 on cruise control. Since practically the whole trip was on cruise control the range started going up and the light went away. I even got a couple of light bars back. When I was almost back home I had a range of 75 miles left.(Free trip!) Also when I filled up it had an estimated range of about 430 miles. I thought I was hot **** when my range read 370 the week before.

well get this one. once when I took a long trip I filled
up,every stupid orange dot was there. so I'm 200 miles
into my trip and not one dot has moved. So I'm thinking
great fuel Gage busted. so I pull over to take a leak
and when I start the car back up I'm down to less than a
half a tank. it's never happened again. Go figure
