Yes, put gas in the tank. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol2.gif)

If you mean the gauge is stuck, there's a good chance that the sender is stuck. There was a thread here about two days ago about curing this very problem! I think GTeener was the original poster? Do a search and you should find it. Lots of good info, including links to previous posts on the subject.

noticing the same thing on mine....

I was thinking the nozzle cut off was just working to soon and I actually did just have 3/4 full.

Filled the tank last night, the nozzle seemed to have a better (fit). Got in the car and the gauge did read up to the full line.

Will still check out other possilbitites per the link Dave suggested to check out.
