POS fuel gauge
So lastnight while driving home I passed through a small town with the fuel gauge showing 1/4 tank of gas.about 10 miles out of town the car sputters sets off the CEL, stabilitrak light, and my TPMS all go crazy as I roll to the side of the road. 5 gal of gas later I'm back up and running, but the lights and warnings are all still there. I do have a GM Tech II with CANDI module so it's not gonna cost me at the dealer but I'm still pissed that my car let me down...

When traveling - I try to keep it above 1/2 tank. I used to travel a lot of country side.....

Ya and I try to as well but I got caught in a small town with 88 as the highest octane sold so I wanted to run it all out before getting good gas again so that the fuse pull wasn't a waste of time when I did it.
