I filled up the car for teh first time the other day it was showing 3/4 at the time.

After filling it, it read full. After driving about 70 miles it still showed full. So I stopped and filled up again. It took 4 gallons.

Is the fuel gauge staying at full normal?

Mine does that although I haven't counted the miles. It will begin to move more rapidly through the middle. Never let t get to the point when the check gauges light comes on... you're on less than fumes!

Mine comes off full on the gauge about 60 miles after topping off. I guess that is about 3-4 gallons used.

My experience is similar as I can drive for about 50 miles before it nudges from full.

I never take gauges as gospel but fill up after about 300 miles give or take,

Mine does not move till 100. And get over 400 per tank.

I’ve used Techron to sort out the gauge going to zero and it worked .
When full it only reads 7/8.
Any idea if continued use of Techron would remedy it ?
I’ll try nonetheless.

Mine is similar to what others have said. The guage is non-linear. It begins to move after ~50-75 miles.

I've heard folks say that it does help.
