Can't fill up my car all the way...anyone else?
Hello,
Everytime I fill my car up with gas, I get in and the needle never reaches the full line...this is even when I purposely OVERFILL the tank. Is it the mechanism inside the tank, the needle or a government conspiracy to bring me to the gas station more often so they can use a laser to probe into my brain and steal secrets about a 1,000 hp G35 I'll have one day? |
Man this has been happening to me for the longest time. Don't know what the problem is. I'm in the same boat as you Randy.

might be a problem with your sending units... go to your local dealer, some even stock them!

Yeah, thats happening to me to now. It never did that before... What gives?
|
Me too on ocasion
|
Yup it's the fuel sending units...just go to the dealer and you should still be under warranty...mine reads perfect now...
|
I think its the car Randy, its taking into account the 5 buxs it takes u to turn over that engine :D
|
Mine too. Just started happening at about 16K miles. Tell me this then...when I drove it yesterday all the way down to under the E line, with the light on for about 60 miles and I went to fill it, it still only took about 18 gallons. Does this mean that I had 2 gallons left, or that it just did not fill up all the way??
|
u had 2 gallons left... if you were truly out of gas, the car would stall, and thats VERY bad for your car...
i always fill @ 1/4 tank |
After 27 months, mine just started showing those same symptoms. With my last 4 or 5 fill-ups, my needle has only been registering about 2 "ticks" below full. :confused: I would intentionally try to top it off, and still not show full. I"m thinking sending unit as well. My last 3 cars have had theirs replaced at one time or another. :(
