hey, anyone ever had the problem that the fuel gauge suddenly go empty while driving? happened to me and another one of my friend w/ same car (95 accord)... anyone knows wuts wrong?

 

were you going up a hill?

 

i dunno what that is but mine does it too only when im running on about 4th of a tank it will say its bone dry and then about 2 maybe 3 miles later it goes back up

 

your float is bad

 

Mom has a 98 Accord EX V-6 and her gauge never read full. Took it to the dealer they replaced the sender unit? now it works just fine.

 

crazy freind of mine was helping me put in my indiglows (i know, i know, no need to say it ) and i heard an 'OOPS' i was lik ewut u do, he said the fuel needle fell off so i have to go by the idiot light

 

yeah sabatian same prob here.. but mines acts whenever it feels like... goes bone dry and a couple of miles later it goes back up... but when it go bone dry the gas light dont' come on though... and my gas tank is never full no matter how much i pump in....

 

The fluctuating fuel reading is a common characteristic of Honda automobiles since the mid 80's, doesn't mean there is a problem, just means the sending units are quick to respond the changes of the fuel level during normal driving conditions..

But as brig4 posted, 96-98 series Accords had a problem with fuel gauges not reading full when the gas tank was topped off.. this problem was fixed with a replacement of the fuel guage sending unit..

 

my 95 is like that sometimes...it's a typical problem

my 93 never reads full...the needle is a degree or so off...it never reaches full, but i think it goes below empty by about the same amount as it falls short of full
