<----- another dead gas light victim. I've driven my tank down to .5 gallons and still get no light, but the manual says it should come on between 1 and 2 gallons (cant recall exact number). Sux but i just know when to fill her up, the gauge is accurate, just not the light.

yep, it's a 17 gallon tank. the light comes on when you have roughly 3-4 gallons left

gas light

:thinking:
i guess that i should have replaced the gas light when i was in the dash cluster replacing all of the gages and oh thanks all of you people that put up the how to install the gages, i think that the hardest part was relizing that the old dials never come out you jus put the new ones over the old ones.!! wow did i feel dumb , but i didnt break any needles, or anything!
