A few days ago the engine service light came on my Explorer XLT 2005. And the fuel gauge needle dropped to empty. The needle has dropped like this only 2 or 3 times in the past one year since I have owned this truck. I immediately shut the engine off and restarted, the needle was back to normal but the service engine light remains on. After driving the last few days the light remains on even thought the fuel gauge needle is working properly.
Otherwise the Truck is behaving normally. I will try Chevron gas as I read on one of the posts.
The dealership charges $140 to diagnose the problem code etc. plus cost of fixing whatever problem there is.
Do we know what the specifically the problem is (I know it has to do with emmision?
Is there an alternative fix? I wish the light to go off though.
Is it okay to keep driving with the service engine soon light on as apparently there is no other problem with the Truck?
Thanks
