Noticed right away that the gauge on my 03 was way the heck off. The full throw of the needle indicates the first 1/2 tank used when I am FAR more interested in knowing about the LAST 1/2 tank.
Just had the tank off to install overflow tubes and figured it would be as good a time as any to deal with the issue.
After perusing the forums I found most people were putting resistors in the gauge wiring. I've had very good results in other vehicles by simply bending the float arm on the sending unit and wanted to try that first because to me it seems simpler and less jury rigged.
After application of TLAR engineering ( That Looks About Right ) I decided to bend it downward about 1 inch.
Just got back from the gas station. The gauge was reading 1/2 a tank and it took 3.5 gals to top off.
Only posting because this fix took all of 5 min. and cost was zero $$.
