Default Problems with the Stang

well the car has a 13 gallon tank so you still had 1/4 of a tank but for the guage the sending unit in the tank might have a bad fuel level meter in it or something like this i suggest that if you know you can drive 254 miles on three tanks of gas then ignore the guage and every time you buy gas reset the trip meter and drive until it says 255-300 miles and then buy gas some where in the middle of that range maybe 275 mi buy gas and you should be fine
