    My floater ( is this right?) seems to be stuck and it stays full all the time. I am kinda scared to drive my car because I don't know if I have gas or not.

    The gauge stays full as a result I cannot really add gas because nag automatic full. stop...

    Honda Civic esi... I don't know what you call it kasi. When the tank is already full it makes the click sound- this is what I meant with the automatic stop...

    Yup. 'Auto stop' is the term used when filling up the tank and it stops by itself. I dont recommend filling up further.

    nmtin.... simple lang ang problema mo tsong... palitan ang float (Gas Tank Sending Unit)! Make sure lang nga that the circuit is shorted (magiging empty yung indicator), so that you'll get accurate readings right away.

    Thanks for your reply... magkano kaya ung float. Yung mekaniko na kinausap ko mahal kasi yung quinote... 6k daw for the float and the pump. Hindi dfaw pwede ihiwalay yung dalawa...

    San ok mag paayos ng ganitong problem?

    Meron pala nun? Sa mga nahawakan ko kasi sasakyan wala pa ganung feature, that's why I have the vehicle shake a bit to let the air out. :D

    Sa Pajero kasi independent yung float. Nasa P1200 yung brand new.

    I forgot that most sedans have integrated fuel pumps na. Try mo sa mga dealers, baka may workaround. sayang naman kung papaltan yung pump just for the sake of the float.

    meron akong ganitong problem dati on my CRV, pag full tank and I mean punong puno, nag eempty yung gauge ko after a few kilometers it will go back up, pinachek ko sa honda sinabi ko baka yung float, tapos chineck nila sabi nila yung Gauge Panel daw so pinalitan nila (covered by warraty) cost at 17k, ngayon yung mileage ko bumalik sa zero (0) parang bago ulit kotse, pero I'm not sure kung gauge lang yun, hindi ko pa na pa full tank ulit na full na full e

    Ibig sabihin nakakasira pala ng fuel gauge kapag punong puno ang paglagay ng fuel...

    From what I read before dapat hanggang auto stop lang when you make pa ful tank. Mali yung ginagawa ng mga gas boy na ipupuno pa beyond the auto stop.

    BTW, thanks for the replies nga pala
