Fuel Gage - Pontiac 2004 Sunfire Owner's Manual

Fuel Gage

United States
Your fuel gage tells you about how much fuel you have
left. When the indicator nears empty, the CHECK
GAGES light will come on. You still have about
1.5 gallons (5.7 L) of fuel left, but you should get more
soon. See Check Gages Warning Light on page 3-35
for more information.

Here are four things that some owners ask about. None
of these show a problem with your fuel gage:
•
•
•
•
Canada
For your fuel tank capacity, see Capacities and
Specifications on page 5-89.
At the service station, the gas pump shuts off
before the gage reads full.
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.
The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or
speed up.
The gage doesn't go back to empty when you turn
off the ignition.
