Re: Low Gas Light

["Jim Reeve" <ultra@xxxx>]

My VIN 06960 original sender turns on the light at almost exactly 2 
gallons left. After having a this same discussion on the DML ealier 
this year, I belive many of us came to the conclusion that the OEM 
senders turned on the lights at completely random times, if at all. 
It could be a bad adjustment in the sender (I think John Hervey said 
he could adjust the timing on it) or it could also be corroded 
contacts in the sender.

While I do not have a TankZilla, while at the tech session in 
Cleveland last year I heard Rob Grady and Bob Zilla say, and I quote, 
"When TankZilla turns on your low fuel light, you need gas NOW!". I 
believe the intention behind this is when the OEM sender is 'supposed' 
to turn on the light, it seemed a bit early and rather unessesary. So 
TankZilla was programed to turn it on only once it was absolutely 
necessary. 

Hope this answers your question.
