[QUOTE="Semis57, post: 13955, member: 538"] Hi guys, well, I am having a bit of trouble with this. I have been using Seafoam, but not at every fill and now I may have to use it more often. What's happening is slightly different (I think) than what I have read about. If I fill up from empty, even with a full tank, I get in the car and the guage reads about 1/2. But, after driving it for some miles, the guage slooooowly creeps back to full. Is Seafoam the answer? Is it just a matter of cleaning up the tank transfer orfice? What confuses me about this is, if the tank transfer from one to the next is slow, how can the guage read half now and full later? What I mean is, if the tank transfer is not occurring, the guage should read half because there is only half- gas is not getting to the other tank at all. Do I have a guage/sending unit issue? Or do I have an understanding problem- I am not "getting" the real problem? Thanks, Semi [/QUOTE]
