Here are four things that some
owners ask about. None of these
show a problem with the fuel gauge:

.

At the service station, the fuel
pump shuts off before the gauge
reads full.

.

It takes a little more or less
fuel to fill up than the gauge
indicated. For example, the
gauge 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 gauge moves a little while
turning a corner or speeding up.

.

The gauge takes a few seconds
to stabilize after the ignition is
turned on, and will go back to
empty when the ignition is
turned off.

Engine Coolant
Temperature Gauge

This gauge shows the engine
coolant temperature.

If the indicator needle moves to the
hot side of the gauge towards the
shaded area, the engine is too hot.

If the vehicle has been operated
under normal driving conditions, pull
off the road, stop the vehicle and
turn off the engine as soon as
possible.
