its weird my moms civics gas gauge will read full tank then after driving a little it'll go down to like half a tank then up later on..its annoying how can i fix it

Dilly

can guarantee you most civics have this problem.

what happens is, the baffle (i guess you would call it) most likely broke inside the gas tank. so when driving, gas sloshes around from side to side and what not.

therefore, you have incorrect reading when making a turn or something. and when the car sits still, you'll have proper reading.

just deal with it, unless you're SUPER **** bout it.

well, i guess i wouldnt exactly use the term "baffles". i cant find the right definition, but its that one thing that floats up when you fill up at a gas station.
