Went to the filling station last night and put $42 in the tank, should have given me about 3/4 full. Gauge didn't move much but it usually doesn't until I start driving the vehicle, or turn it off for a short period and restart it. However, just prior to going to the pump, and the gauge read approx. 1/8th of a tank, the low fuel (amber) warning light came on unexpectedly. Just so happens I was heading to the station at the time anyway. So, after putting in the $42, now the fuel gauge never has gone beyond the first third of a tank measure, and though Ive driven 50 miles since then, the needle hasn't registered any movement. Needle has not moved since pulling away from the pump last night, and it should have. Wondering if the float might be stuck (among other things), and will completely filling the tank possibly free it? Any ideas?
