fuel gauge

I Haven't seen this posted exactly. When I turn the ignition or start the car the fuel gauge usually goes up to where it should but then soon drops to empty and the 'check gauge' light comes on. Now it is harder to get it to go up by turning ignition on or starting the car, having to try...

So I have a 98 explorer which the fuel guage is always moving. I could have half a tank in it and it reads anywhere between full and 1/4 tank. I was thinking it was the anti slosh unit but I was wondering it was the whole fuel assembly. Any tips would help.

Well... Seems I've made more work for myself... About six months ago I undertook two jobs that tested my skill level. Both with guidance from this blog, as well as hours spent under and above my '02 (June '01) Explorer Sport V6, 4.0L 4x4. I am currently dealing with multiple issues, and I'm...

Both my fuel and temperature gauges do not work properly. When I first start up the temperature gauge falls all the way to the bottom on the high side and the fuel gauge falls to the bottom past empty. However, I am also dealing with a slight over heating problem and when the temperature...

Hi all, Just bought a 1994 Explorer 4x4, with only 70,000 original miles. However, it seems like the stuff that is wrong with it might indicate that the sell shaved off 100,000. I have some problems, such as the CEL come on and stays on, about 5 seconds after is goes out. Second thing is...

I recently inherited a 98 mountaineer with the check engine light on. It threw the codes: P1151, P0153, P0155. I put about 100 miles on it and the fuel gauge got stuck on full. The battery also drained over two days, so I think there is a short somewhere. Any help would be greatly...

Guys, I've found this website IMMENSELY helpful over the years. I've owned a 91 explorer and now I have an 02 Sport w/ 80k. I've had about 2 years. I have a few issues with the sport and would like some opinions: #1 Fuel Gauge works on and off half the time. Half the time its on, and the other...

Greetings All, I have a 2000 XLS 2WD 4.0L 5-speed with a funky fuel gauge. On 3 occasions over the past year, I have been driving down the interstate with about 3/4 tank of gas and the gauge visibly begins to drop by more than a quarter tank. When I accelerate, the gauge returns to the...

I'm looking to share much info off this site as I have owned this vehicle since 1992. My son came home from the hospital in it and now he's driving it. I've kept it all these years b/c its a great vehicle and have done many things over the years. Now I'm trying to get the fuel gauge to work. I...
