CHEVROLET TRACKER 1995 Owners Manual

Fuel Gage Here are four concerns some owners have had about the
fuel gage. All these situations are normal and do not
indicate that anything is wrong with the fuel gage.

Your fuel gage shows about how much fuel is in your
tank. When the gage first indicates
EMPTY (E), you
still have a little fuel left (about one or two gallons), but
you need
to get more right away. At
the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before the
gage reads
FULL (F).
It takes more (or less) fuel to fill up than the gage
reads. For example, the gage reads half 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 go
back to EMPTY (E).
