    Well, well, well. The fuel indicator is back to normal all it took was driving 1000 miles north to Reading, PA and back. Weird. Musta purged the bad gas with no perminate damage to the sender?

    Saw a Proton wiz by while I was at a German restuarant near rt 10.

    While you were gone there was some news about a Florida class action suit against Shell for bad gas ruining gas gauges. Check it out: Florida drivers sue Shell.

    I use Shell exclusively except the once in 2 weeks when I fill up near Iowa, then it's Mobile or BP Amoco. I wonder if what I am experiencing can be because of the gas as well? I'll stay away from Shell for the time being and see if anything changes.

    Mine had the gauge problem recently for about 2 months and resoleved on its own. Mentioned it to dealer and as usual they said it was fine.
