[QUOTE="Denis Bourque, post: 801451, member: 66642"] I had the same thing happen twice last winter. When I checked with my Ford Dealer he told me this was a common issue due to Gas additives in todays gas. The additives create a film on the sending unit and it reads wrong. He suggested changing to a different gas station to see if it would solve the problem. Their suggetsion was a bigger chain with more volume(not the no name corner gas station). Both times happened right after a fill up, about a week apart and the second time I noticed the guage actually went up, just extremely slow. I haven't seen this happen again and it's been about six months. This could be your issue. Denis [/QUOTE]
