| Description of the problem | As i came to a stop, i noticed that my fuel gauge was fluttering up and down. Then my fuel light came on and i knew that i had just filled the tank the day before, so i had plenty of gas. Since then it has been very erratic, but mostly showing that i'm on empty. The only way to keep track is on my trip meter but that can be a little worrisome--i'm always worried that i am miscalculation. My check engine light is always on now too. |
