My gas light was on and near empty, so I put $90 in. I drove away and the car still said it was on empty. I pulled over, checked to be sure the gas cap was on and tight and it was. I have continued to drive the car, which means gas is in it. Why is my gas sensor/ gauge not working and how do I fix it?
The sensor is mounted tot eh side of the fuel pump that is located inside the fuel tank. Sometimes dirt builds up and the sensor sticks and sometimes they just go bad. You will need to drop the fuel tank and remove the fuel pump assembly to test and or replace it.
