recently bought a 1990 4x4 Stx 4.0
original owner told me don't trust the gas gauge, b/c when you fill it up it goes waaaaaaayy past "full"
i wanted to actually see where is the "danger zone" for Empty, so i figured i would drive till maybe an indictor for low fuel, or maybe on a hard turn would sputter, and then i would know where to judge from.
woke up this morning to start the truck to let it warm up before heading into work. come back out of the house, truck is dead. I figured out i don't have a low fuel indicator! tank reads at a 1/4 tank full when empty.
Is there any way to recalibrate the fuel gauge? atleast so its somewhat acurate. not a big deal, but thought maybe TRS could help!
Thanks!
