Listed are four situations you may experience
with
your fuel gage:
0
At the gas station, the fuel pump shuts off before
the
gage reads full.
0
It takes a little more or less fuel to fill
up
than the fuel gage indicated.
For
example, the gage 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.
0
The gage moves a little when you turn a corner or speed up.
0
The gage doesn’t go back to empty when you turn
off
the ignition.
None of these indicate a problem
with
the fuel gage.

how to
fill
your fuel tank, see “Fuel

This gage shows the engine coolant temperature. If the gage pointer moves
into the red area, about
260°F
(145°C) or more, your engine is too hot! It
means that your engine coolant has overheated.
If
you have been operating
your vehicle under normal operating conditions, you should pull
off
the
road, stop your vehicle, and turn off the engine as soon as possible.
