So I was driving around running some arrends. I got a "Low Fuel" signal. Ok so I go and fill up as soon as I got to a 76 station. Which was a block away as soon as it came on. I fill up, 91 octane, $36. Level shows "Full" tank. I go and meet up with some friends of mine at their home. I find a spot to park my car. As I look to my speedo, I notice my gas level goes from Full to Empty in like 2 sec. I was like WTF!. I know I filled up. So I rev the car to like 3500 rpms or so it goes to "Full" again. As the car idles it come down again. I repeat to rev the car and it goes up. Picture your gas level like your boost gage up and down up and down. I have a feeling it might be the floater....Any suggestion on what else it might be?????????. Still gonna take it to the dealer to get it fixed and to see if its covered.

Short vid of whats going on.

.........Help?

 

Voltage problem due to a bad ground for the altenator or somewhere else.

Let us know what the verdict is from the dealer.

 

yeah, its probably the floater. my dads silverado has done the same thing for over 3 years. now its just on low fuel all the time. we just havent dropped the tank to get fix it.

 

Bad Float in the tank

 

My Silverado did the same thing until one day the truck wouldn't start. The fuel sender/gas pump are one unit so it was not a cheap fix.

 

I hope it's not that bad.

 

yeah i know, my dad just goes buy the trip because the dealer wanted like $500.
