Fuel Gauge/Range
Having just seen a posting about fuel gauges and ranges, I wonder if
anyone can help me (Phil? ;-)....)
When I have one segment left to go on the fuel gauge (i.e. the one before
it starts to flash) and about 80 miles fuel range, under hard acceleration
my engine will start to miss. If I let the fuel range get down to about 40
miles, and I subject the car to hard acceleration the the engine starts to
cut out completely, just like its running out of fuel (which it is..)
Is there a way of reseting/calibrating my fuel gauge/range so that it is
more accurate?
It also makes me wonder if there is something wrong with my fuel tank
system or pipes, because I get the feeling its pulling air in from
somewhere when the tank gets low on fuel.
