I just reset the gauges before I took that, I was driving <10mph out of my development. I was under the impression is gives the range based of speed and some other factors, once I got on the highway cruising at 65 it went up to 155 miles left with that much gas.

The gauge did peg to 80 the next day and 130 psi, then it went back to zero. Sender issue its in the shop now getting a new one.

Im trying to fight the mod bug. I did pretty good with my last car a 2000 Lightning. I didnt do any mods and it came with the basically the same ones done to the vette. Exhaust, lowered and tune. Im going to get this one tuned I hate how it shifts other than that im happy.
