yeah thats right i was at work and got there with 3/4 tank and im down to a half now...so i immediately went to advance auto and got a locking gas cap...pretty sad that, thats what i had to do but be careful guys...someone had to have known i put 93 in her....SOB's

and one more post to make it 900 YAY!!

 

[blackbullitt08]

**coughc***gags***weezes***

it wasn't me

 

[prodrifterx]

that sucks. but u sure the gauge isnt being finikcy or being off a little. mine has been inaccurate at times. just a thought. be reading great for the longest time and then have a weird glitch like that for 5 mins. then it be fine for weeks..

karma's a bitch though.. hopefully whoever siphoned it was driving a diesel truck :lmao

that would suck for them. theyd have to drain and flucsh the tank, get new pump, new injectors and so forth. labor would be a bitch too.

 

[06GTMustang89]

yeah lets hope karma gets there asses hahaha

 

[Rico-mofos]

thats sucks....i hope they swallowed alot of it!

 

[usafimj]

Maybe he had 3/4 tank when he left home but gave it alil to much gas on the way to work and now has 1/2 tank.....Hmmmmmmm

 

[06GTMustang89]

hahahaha nope but i have done that before usafimj

I tried to siphon mine before a dyno run. The only thing I could get down the inlet was a piece of 1/4" tubing. I started siphoning and went in and took a shower, got dressed, and talked on the phone for a little while. When I came out to check it I had 1/2 gallon in the can. These cars are next to impossible to siphon. Just my .02 cents.

 

[mineralmustang05]

Thats true I've tried siphoning mine but hard as hell to do it

 

[C MY 4D]

Thats a shitty ford gauge dude..... They didn't siphon your ****.

 

[nba1341]

tard

 

[Luis_GT]

Our cars have a shitty ass gauge... reason I always fill when the 50 miles left on the gallon alarm comes on... can't trust that **** at all.... at least I don't

you cant siphion them from the filler neck. you cant even do it if one applies compressed ait to start the siphon. it may start but ill stop in a few seconds bc it doesnt have a consistent pressure or line feed to keep it going. youd have to stand there with a hose in the filler/tank and compressed air steadily blowing o pull the gas out. it be loud, it would need a steady 90psi that can peak to 125 psi, and need shop siize tanks, otherwsie air line pressure drops, and the suction fails. air tanks would need to be over 60gallon so that the compressor doenst have to cycle on, disrupting the air flow. now if i had the car in the air and had the filler neck undone and the hose in the tank, it works no problem. do it alot at work.

shitty gauge FTL. my gauge acts up now and again. same shitty design gauge like all other manufacturers, Gm included.

 

[hellbred07]

Dude these gauges do suck,they are very inaccurate so don't think someone siphoned your gas.One minute you're at half driving the highway the next thing you're at a quarter.PIECE OF ****.

 

[06GTMustang89]

oh well maybe thats true...ill see if my gauge goes back when i drive her today...the locking gas cap is a good piece of mind in my opinion anyway

 

[IronStomach]

It's the material they use to make the fuel level sensor, read something about it in the newspaper a few years back - most American manufacturers use a sensor that gets a specific type of corrosion from some particular additive in the fuel formulation we use in the US. The corrosion makes the sensor malfunction exactly like what yours is doing.

There's a fuel additive you can use every other tank of gas that removes the corrosion, but if you stop using it, the corrosion just comes back. Best to watch your miles and do what Luis does = fill up more often.

It sucks, but the alternative is to buy a more expensive car... is it worth it? Not imo.
