Default Magical Gas !

lol well yesterday i went to In N Out (burger place for you non so cal) and as usua there was a long line ... so after i finally got my burgers i noticed all of a sudden my gas guage is near full. It was at exact half when I got to In N Out. No there wasnt a decline at the drive thru. After about 10 minutes of driving it went back to half tank ... has this happend to anybody before?

I mean i would get the usual one or two bars when im parking at my driveway (decline) but this was a good half tank increase ....l

I went from 1/4 tank to bone dry empty between shutting off the car and trying to start it again. Needless to say, I was not happy.

isn't there some kind off injector cleaner that solves this problem. cause the lil sensor/ floaty thing that tells the gauge how much gas you have sticks once in a while.
