i just dont know what to do... im lost now

welp just changed my plugs like two days ago and from what i see after filling my tank is that my needle for gas is just about to move out of full and ive gone about 35 miles.... looks to be the same as usual for me... so i think ima check the o2 sensers next. is there a way to check these out easily??? never had to mess with this before. what else can u guys think of that might help? im clueless.

Best way to do it, is to take the number on the trip odometer, and reset it when you fill you tank. Next time you get gas, fill the tank, divide the miles by the gallons, that's the best way to tell. Some people's lights seem to come on at different times (3 gallons, 4 gallons) so it can make a notable difference.

Also, where are you getting your gas? Different stations run better in my car, stay away from someplace like Cumberland Farms. Shell is a much better station to go with.

Ya i figured my gas light comes on with like a gallon left. As for your milage do a tune up, oil, air filter, no plugs anymore but that should help along with cleanin the tranny filter im sure that helps quite a bit to. ANd if there was a problem with your O2 sensor your check engine light would come on.
