Your fuel gage shows about how much fuel is in your
tank. The fuel gage works only when the ignition switch
is in the RUN position. When the gage pointer first
indicates EMPTY
(E) you still have a little fuel left
(about
one to two gallons), but you need to get more
right away. At the
gas station,
the gas pump shuts off before the
gage reads
FULL (F).
It takes more (or less) gas to fill up than the gage
reads. For example, the gage reads 1/2 full, but
it
took more (or less) than half of the tank’s capacity to
fill
it.
The gage moves a little when you turn, stop or speed
UP.
When
you turn the engine off, the gage doesn’t PO
back to EMPTY (E),
