Yeah sometimes I wish we had those gauges that say how many miles we had left in the tank, though those aren’t the most accurate either. But I still keep it at least at 1/4 tank at all times and never had an issue. What’s the plan now? Just gonna keep an eye on the gas left or what?

Run it down until the light comes on and then fill it. Does the gauge work? If yes, fuggetaboutit.

So I went to the car and the gauge was still stuck. So I went to the same spot same gas station same 2.501 gallons and this time it shot up to over 2/4’s a tank. So I am completing my analysis that as much as I thought that 1/4 tank was going to get me to 2/4 I may have been pressing my luck before that freeway exit cause this was technically a 0/4 to 2/4 $20 total of 5 gallons of 91 gas.

Like I have said, the car requires a good back rubbing session so it burps..

I used to just drive fast down a bumpy road. It worked great in my 74 Ford van with a stuck gas gauge.

Banned how when I bought shares of SPCE at $13 and now it’s $30 enough for me to buy 3+ more FR-S.

Ya I get it now gauges are too old-school for a software engineer.

Apparently so is basic English, fractions, consistency/accuracy in figures (Was it $2.51 a gallon or $2.501), addition and overall comprehension of physics.

They may as well bring the EEE and the GFC and the IOP to make sure gauges are accurate 😂
