Re: Fuel tank not filling

All good advice however don't overfill the tank. Good practice is to fill the tank slowly and stop when the pump auto cutoff triggers 3 times. If you fill to the brim, particularly in hot weather, you run the risk that the engine may not start, run rough or cut our. It this happens and you can get it running then drive for 5-10 miles to clear the problem.
The fuel gauge reading will vary over time. Mine can be on zero in anything from 40 -120 miles!!! So it's best to totally ignore the fuel gauge and just set the trip meter when you fill up and fill again after 200 miles or so.
