Default fuel gauge ?
okay so i put in 7 gallons of fuel last nite. almost running on empty. so i start the car and notice that the fuel gauge is not marking the fuel i just added. it took about 2-3 minutes for the gauge neadle to move. never really noticed this before. is this normal

fuel gauge on our cars can act funny sometimes, put a bottle of chevron techron with the additive in it that helps prevent gauge problems. it worked on my old 02
