Hey Guys,
Got a simple issue on my liberty (well hoping its simple)
After throwing in $20 in my liberty the fuel gauge still shows as empty..
This also isn't a one off, its the second time its happened in the last few weeks, so its not the fuel stations fault.
When I fill it to the top, everything seems fine, gauge responds as expected,
Anyone else seen anything like this ?

A twenny doesn't buy much fuel these dayz........
Sorry - can't stop myself sometimes.........
Never heard of it happening, but sounds like a resistance circuit could be intermittently failing on the fuel level sensor........

i had it happen on my outback once but turned the car off and on and she was all good. If no one has been playing with the fuel pump i cant see that being an issue?
