Broken Gas Gauge

I think my gas gauge is broken. The gauge was reading half full and then my car died in my work parking lot. Oh no! Well, the good thing is that you were not left on the side of the road. The issue could be a broken gas gauge but most likely something else is going on. One simple test is to get under your vehicle and tap on the gas tank. If you hear a hollow sound the tank is probably empty, and a broken gas gauge is not the answer. If you hear a sloshing sound or thud, then you know you have plenty of gas. So, if you have plenty of gas, why did it die on you? Before calling Bob's Auto to make an appointment, check the instrument panel fuse location in owner's manual. This will help you locate what fuse to inspect for cracks. If the fuse seems to be fine, give us a call!
