Hello all,
I'll try & keep this one short & to the point, the 2000 Eddie Bauer being the vehicle in question today. So about 2 weeks ago I went on a small offroad loop (12.5 miles) local to home, upon starting I was reading 3/4 of a tank. As I was just coming back up on pavement I noticed my over head console displaying "CO" & Compass only, also my fuel was reading far below the empty line on the dash in the normal position when the vehicle is off.
Confused yet sure I had fuel in the tank I made the 5 mile drive back home & shut the truck off & started it back up to find my fuel readings back to normal. This has occurred 3 more times over the last 2 weeks, all times over atleast 1/4 tank & under normal driving conditions in the city.
The only time my fuel readings would normally not be correct is if I was parked at angle (Upward frontend = higher reading, ect.. the normal stuff) for a long period of time with the truck off. Fuel pump was replaced about 4 years ago. I searched around & couldn't find anything so any help would be appreciated. If nothing else I may replace the fuel pump in the near future.
Thanks!
