Fuel sending units read WRONG time after time!

First step would be to find out exactly how much your tank holds.

Get a nice sealed fuel can full of 7 gallons of gas and run the car empty.

Fill it with tracked amounts of gas.

For example, run it really low to where you expect to run out some time soon, then dont drive too far away from a gas station. When it runs out you put 7 gallons in it and drive 10 miles to the nearest gas station and fill it up. What ever the numbers are just note them down.

Total in from gas can minus total estimated consumed during the 10 miles to the gas station (maybe 1 gallon) + amount to fill tank = your total tank volume.

Ive done this with every car i've owned just to find out how large the tank is and how much fuel I have left after the gauge reads E.

Actually, I had measured my current (assume original) tank when I had it down and empty. Added 5 gallons to the empty tank to get me to the gas station, about 3 miles away, and added another 9 gallons. That is why I have been figuring 14 gallons. But like I said, according to the books my tank holds 18....LOL

When I install my new tank current one has a slight seepage) I plan on doing the same thing, and crossing my fingers that I do not have to play with the damn sender again....that was such a pain to calibrate it.
