SilverBullet is on a distinguished road
fuel gauge
I have a 2002 3.0i with about 51k. I am noticing that after I fill the tank, and go driving the my needle will stay at the full tank marker for close to 100 miles, especially when I am driving on the highway. My guage showed a little under 3/4 a tank at 176 miles. But once I get around half tank, the guage drops a lot quicker. Anyone experiencing something similar? Could this be a fuel sending unit? Thanks in advance.
