302 miles to E with a 1/4 tank

[T-Rev]

Anyone else had their fuel gauge display incorrectly? I filled up yesterday and had only gone a few miles. When I started the truck today the gauge showed a 1/4 tank instead of full. Turning the truck off and on fixed it.

No problems like that

Weird. You sure you don’t actually have 1,200 miles of range?

Sounds like a fuel sending unit issue… keep an eye on it.

Maybe it's not an error man, go with it and see just how far you can travel on that ¼ tank of fuel.
(Like Kramer from Seinfeld, on the test drive episode... LOL)

TRY THIS I SAW THIS ON A WEB SITE, TO GET YOUR CALIBRATION CORRECT RESET YOUR DASH. BOARD EVERY TIME YOU GO OUT AND THIS SHOULD RESET THE INFORMATION AFTER 4 OR 5 TIME. ( I’M NOT TALKING 5 OR 10 MILES ) I WOULD THING 50 + SEE IF THIS MAKE A DIFFRENCE

I wish since I've been averaging 14.5mpg lol.

I wondered if someone drilled a hole in my tank. Glad that wasn't the case and it reset after turning off/on.

Thanks for the suggestion. This wasn't a concern with the miles to empty, it was the fuel gauge itself which now shows the correct amount after turning off/on again.

Haven't seen it on my Ranger, but I've had it happen on my F150 anytime I had to disconnect / reconnect the battery. Seems it took a while to relearn the miles till empty range.

LOL, better than I, getting about 13 around town, mostly keeping my foot out of it. But, we bought them for the "coolness" effect and the HP, so when we tell it to go... it flippin' goes!
