Alteast you guys have fuel gages !!! Driving one day ... and a small cloud of smoke came out from the side of the guage cluster .. and guess what, the needle on my fuel guage, moved all the way to the top, behind the edge of the cluster, and now it doesn't work anymore.
I use my tripometer to figure out how much gas i've got left ... i get about 475 - 500 kilometres to the tank ... so whatever that works out to in miles.
edit .. just checked .. just over 300 miles to the tank. Those numbers are from last weeks tank ... this past weekend, I've just replaced the plugs/wires/fuel,air filters/oil change, and checked/replaced fluids where necesary.
So, I ought to be getting a bit better mileage from now on.
