Fuel Gage - Buick 1999 LeSabre Owner's Manual

Trunk Ajar Light (If Equipped)

Fuel Gage

Standard Cluster
Your fuel gage shows about how much fuel is in your
tank. It works only when the engine is on. When the
indicator nears EMPTY (E), you still have a little fuel
left. You need to get more fuel right away.
2-70
This light comes on if your
vehicle's trunk is not
completely closed.
Gage Cluster
Here are some things that some owners ask about. None
of these show a problem with your fuel gage:
D
At the service station, the gas pump shuts off before
the gage reads FULL (F).
D
It takes a little more or less fuel to fill up than the
gage indicated. For example, the gage may have
indicated the tank was half full, but it actually took a
little more or less than half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.
D
The gage moves a little when you turn a corner,
speed up, or make a hard stop.
D
The gage doesn't go back to EMPTY (E) when you
turn off the ignition.
Low Fuel Warning Light (If Equipped)
If your vehicle has the gage
cluster, a light near the fuel
gage will turn on when you
are low on fuel. You should
get more fuel as soon as
you can.
