Hey guys so I got alot of things replaced last week due to an incident that happened and the gas tank is one of them...when I had 69 miles left there was still 5 dots left.. I filled up yesterday and was at 305 now im at 274 nd it hasnt moved...is the sensor messed up? the dots continue to show full tank after 35 miles have gone down the drain...

Mine takes 30-50 miles for it to go down the first dot.

Mine too. Then it goes down proportional to the throttle.

Well guys now that I think about it remember my car wasn't drivin for a month in a week the computer probably still has to go through its cycle to get the readings because when I first got it back it was idling all the time for a whole month so the MPGs without like 6.3 miles per gallon now I just got back up to about 17.2 so maybe the car is getting used to
