Fuel Gage
When the ignition is on, your fuel gage lets you know
about how much fuel you have left. When the gage first
shows empty, you'll still have a little fuel left, but you
should get more fuel soon.
If your vehicle has dual fuel tanks, the reading on the
gage is the total fuel left in both tanks.

Your fuel gage is located
on the right side of your
instrument panel cluster.
Here are four concerns of some operators. None of
these shows a problem with your fuel gage:
•
The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or
speed up.
•
The gage does not go back to empty when you turn
off the ignition.
•
At the gas station, the pump shuts off before the
gage reads full.
•
It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
gage indicated.
