About a month or so ago I started noticing that I can't seem to get a full tank of gas according to my gauge. After filling it all the way up, it only reads about 9/10ths full... what's the deal?

Does the gas pump prematurely shut off? If so, I have the same problem.... I've been having it for a long time now. If you blast it at full throttle, then it cuts off at half full. If I pump at the slowest speed, it fills up to 9/10th maybe. Weird. Dealer can't figure out what's wrong with it.

PREACH BROTHER PREACH!!! I had the problem with premature shut off and once I switched pumps no more problems. Same gas station, just a different pump. Dont know why, but it works. Nothing to do with levelness or anything like that. Maybe it is the alignment of the planets. Bottom line switch pumps till you find one that works.

I told the Dealer in January 2003. The dealer said that they would get back
to me but never did. I started to notice that it wouldn't get filled up all the way at different gas stations. I haven't had that problem anymore.

I concur, my gas gauge does not go all the way to the top either. Just started happening a few weeks ago. Is it a recalibration, or is it a faulty fuel pump?
