I was 22 miles from the place I park. I will go out tomorrow and finish unloading it and go fill it up as I may have to take it to FL as soon as this weekend for work. Quote Selected
Re: Low Fuel Light Reply #5 – November 12, 2018, 09:31:41 pm Never want to see that light on.Fuel gets pretty warm when tank is low, from hot returning fuel, not to mention running out because gauge is not perfect, or fuel is swished to one side.Gen will not run with low fuel level, so keep that light off.We have never seen it on in 20 years.

Re: Low Fuel Light Reply #6 – November 12, 2018, 09:40:57 pm From my previous fill up from 1/4 tank I still had about 50-60 gallons left, I will fill it tomorrow and note how many gallons it takes. I dont thing the gauge is set right on the low end. Quote Selected

Mine would come on just going straight for maybe 10 sec then come on in another 10 or 15 miles the same way. Quote Selected

Re: Low Fuel Light Reply #16 – November 13, 2018, 08:49:54 am Just a suggestion-- particularly this time of year when we have HUGE temperature swings-- FILL THE FUEL TANK BEFORE PARKING.That will minimize condensation. 100 gallons of air from the last time you drove (say dew point 75 degrees F) will put a lot of water in the tank when temperature drops to freezing. That is exactly what happened here in Texas in the last few days. Quote Selected 5 Likes

That is exactly what happened here in Texas in the last few days.I would have but I was running out of time, I made it the meeting 15 minutes before it started. At the meeting I found out I need to be in the FL panhandle Friday or Saturday, with some quick calling around it looks like there are not camping/RV parks close that are open or have vacancies I did find that when I started it up today the gauge just barley came off E but all I could get in it was 98.7 gallons. That put my mileage at 6.66 with most of the time running 60-65 pulling a old CJ5 Quote Selected

Re: Low Fuel Light Reply #21 – November 14, 2018, 11:08:07 am I will from now on but this was just my 2nd fill up and I was trying to see just what the fuel gauge was doing. Now I know it is no where close to accurate but it is on the safe side. Quote Selected
