i am dumbfounded......
i would like to know if anyone else's gas gauge goes down a lot faster when its on the left side.....ive come to realise that i get about 125-150 miles for the right side of the tank, but like 20 miles for the left side....it just moves very smoothly, and quickly i might add, towards the E on the left side....i am confused and a half:confused: :confused:

It's normal, it's the same on my car. I think it might be because of the shape of the tank. I know what you mean though, it's pretty annoying.

This is normal, both my Z28s do this, as does everyone else I have ever know with a 4th gen car.
The reason I have heard for this is because the Gas Tank has a "V" shape to it, so the closer you get the to the bottom the less gas there really is, thus it will be used faster. ive come to realise that i get about 125-150 miles for the right side of the tank, but like 20 miles for the left side |

If you are only getting 170 Miles per tank, I would check on that... That is sorta low unless you really drive the piss out of your car. |
Yeah its really ****ing annoying... Another great GM design....

A better gauge for the fuel is that when your tank is Waay Past the Full then it is on full. At "3/4 tank" your about half-way through your tank. And when the gauge is around "1/8 tank" I'd say the fuel light comes on.. I waited for the fuel light to come on once and ended up calling a buddy to drive me some gas on the side of the road.:death:
