Her gas guage thing is weird though, it says a half a tank then we go around the block and it says a quarter so I think somethings wrong with hers. We could have had a full tank and not even known lol

Mine was full last Week... Then I drove it a bit back and forth to work. I'll probably fill it back up this week and not because I have the cash to fill it ..but more so so when the week comes around that I am extra broke .... and can't put gas in my D.D. I can at least get to work.. lol

My Jeep likes to stall around corners when its low on gas. So I tend to keep mine between half and full.

this, anything under a 1/4 and if I make a turn at a stop fast it will putt and spitt on me, On long sweeping corners/on/off ramps it sometimes stalls...

I assume the pickup hose in the tank has gotten stuck in the corner and not in the center low spot like it should be.

Everytime I fill up my Heep it gets a full tank. And when full the Needle is slightly past the Full line. Only every couple weeks too (=
Heeps are known for the fuel needle dropping when accelerating and/or on certain inclines. Has to do with not many or lack of baffles in the tank and the fuel gets swished around.
Mine had a dent in the tank from the PO, so the one time I totally ran it out of fuel it took 18.7 gal. Usually when my fuel light comes on and stays on it usually takes about 16.8-17 gal

I always fill it up.

Its gonna be used either way. Instead of spending $10 every two days its $40 once a week.

Its not really saving you any money not filling up.
