Whoops! BTDT. One of my cars goes from full to 1/4, and 1/4 is
really empty. Ask Frank, I was on my way to his house and ran out of
gas about 200 feet south of the Toms River toll booth. I live with it
in that car and just fill up at a hair above a 1/4. My MG goes from full
to almost empty.
Check the mileage and see how much gas you are using. Maybe full on
the gauge = 3/4. I sure some lister will tell you how to fix the
sender/gauge if it really bothers you.
