Running out of gas..not empty
My wife ran the SC2 (1999) out of gas a couple weeks ago. She did it
again the next week and now today it "ran out" on the freeway. She got a splash from the highway helper, went to the gas station, and it only took 5gallons to fill it. (the highway helper didnt dump more than a half gallon in it) What's going on? Is the fuel pump failing from running out the first and second times? Why stall when there is 1/2 a tank? perplexing.. |

Doesn't that vent get plugged if people repeatedly overfill the tank instead of stopping when it clicks off? -DanD -- # Dan Duncan (kd4igw) http://pcisys.net/~dand |
