Hey guys,
Just a quick question.
Lately my fuel guage (both needle and digital display) has been moving normally like a good fuel guage should.
but often by about the 3/4 tank mark my DTE will be reading 300ks to go. which i know is bullshit as it has taken 150ks to get to the 3/4 mark and will pull about 550-600 if i was to push it to the limit.
my concerns are
a - is the fuel being consumed at a faster rate and my fuel sender is fuct
b - 02 sensors goooorn? (but from reading threads it seems like a fake fix)
c - something else you guys have dealt with and fixed? (hopefully)
i have driven on and ignored the DTE and reached an easy 270-300ks by the 1/2 tank mark, but the DTE will be getting down to the 180-200ks mark by half tank.
I've tried pulling the batt off to reset the ecu incase there was some strange fuel consumption error in the ecu, but the DTE will reset to 750ks to go initially, then decline at a massive rate again.
I'm lost on this one, i figure someone out there should be able to shed some light on it!
cheers all!
