My fuel gauge isn't very accurate. It goes from 1/4 tank to empty very quickly, and goes from full to 3/4 very slowly. That is kind of normal way how it was set. Because when it's full, the needle won't take off from (beyond the F marker) after about 20 miles. And E mark...
As the strip cools, it straightens out, pulling the gauge from full to empty. Some newer cars, instead of sending the current directly to the gauge, use a microprocessor that reads the output of the resistor and communicates with the dashboard. These systems actually help improve the accuracy...
“We often hear from prospects they had a fraud incident where an employee gets fired and immediately goes and swipes thousands of dollars in fuel purchases in retaliation for getting fired. This is because legacy fuel cards take one to two business days to be deactivated, and businesses...
Eric Bevans had the 10-gauge aluminum cut out to his specifications and then welded the entire cell together. The shape is intended to fit behind the rear axle of the truck under the frame where it will assist with weight balance and provide a low center of gravity. Slots in the top pa...
My M235i ZF8 would get incredible fuel economy on a long trip in comfort mode (32 mpg). The ZF8 is high geared in 8th. That said, if you are driving the twisties hard you can watch the gas gauge go down. I think a 6spd M235 or M240 would burn more gas overall and especially ...
Estimating responses to changes in both fertilizer and output price helps to gauge whether farmers’ fertilizer demand is more responsive to changes in fertilizer or crop/output prices. One might be concerned that the estimated price elasticity of fertilizer demand could be confounded by supply chain...

If you know anything about fuel cells then you know that a 23 cell wet cell is huge. It puts enough H2 out to run my motor cycle without any gas. Ive had this cell in my car for the past year. I only took it out to replace it with my new 100 plate cell. I hope it goes to...
GM's Suburban Goes Diesel Those of us who have been following GM's on-again off-again diesel Suburban program over the past eight years were beginning to lose faith whether we would ever see a production version. The wait may be coming to an end as GM unveiled its proposed 4.5L Duramax...
