Default Fuel Distance to empty Problem Help

So I was working on my car and I disc the negative for around 2-3 hours and when I turn on the car I have 0 distance to empty and the car is 1/4 full, I go and fill it up then the distance to empty 50 miles starts at 1/2 a gallon. I think it is now set that it is empty when it is 1/4 full. How do I fix this w/o going to the dealer any1 know?

1. Try hitting the reset button on the dash.

2. Disconnect the negative battery cable again and see if that fixes it.

3. If you have a custom tune, reload the stock tune, then load the custom tune again.

Hope this helps.

That happened with the stock tune, I reset it already and reflashed it. I noticed it keeps getting better everytime I let it get more empty so I am planning to bring it to the redline almost empty and just fill it up and see if it fixes up a tad.
