Re: Fuel gauge puzzler
Both of my trucks do that. They go past full....stay there for what seems like a long time and then they move pretty fast towards empty....I always enjoy it when they hover in the full zone for a while....

Re: Fuel gauge puzzler
Mine goes past full, but when it just touches the red E mark you best find a gas station fast.
