Here's one that I haven't found a conclusive answer for in my searches here. I replaced the entire fuel pump assembly on my '98 Mountaineer (11/97 build date) a couple of weeks ago. After draining the tank to do the pump work I put 5 gallons of gas in the tank. The guage went to about 1/4 of a tank which seemed to be reasonable. Yesterday night I filled the tank and the guage went past full and has stayed there. I've put about 40 miles on it so I expect that I've used more than a couple of gallons. Should the guage read empty when the key is off? Mine drops to around 3/4 of a tank.
I don't want to get stuck and I have no sense yet of how far I can go on a tank of fuel.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Mike
