about how much fuel you have left in your tank.
The gage will rst indicate empty before you

soon as possible.

your fuel gage. None of these indicate a problem

but it actually took a little more or less than
half the tank’s capacity to ll the tank.
The gage goes back to empty when you turn
off the ignition.
