Gremlins again!
OK. I pulled the car in the garage last night with 1/4 tank of gas.
Started it up the AM and the tank was empty and check fuel gauge came on immediately!
Whats up with this???

Could be your fuel sending units are messed up - Could only be sulfur deposits on them. Try running a bottle or two of Techron through the gas tank and see if that cures the problem. You also might want to switch brands of gas for a while and see if that helps.

I have this problem every once in a while. Techron & switching fueling stations seems to help. As a precaution, I use Trip A as a fuel odometer and Trip B as a oil odometer. I also don't let the car get below 1/4 of a tank.
