    Help... Fuel Gauge Diagnosis

    Hello... I recently purchased a 2001 Ford Expedition EB. Unfortunately, the person that I purchased it from was not honest about an issue regarding the fuel gauge and some other items (unrelated to this problem). Luckily, I didn't find out the hard way by running out of fuel on the highway...
