After about 220 miles my gauge is right on the empty but when I fill up I almost always get 10 gallons worth in. Now that's what I call a badly misreading gauge. The needle gently drops as I would expect to the half full level then suddenly plummets to empty within about 70 miles. The first time it happened I went into panic mode as I thought my fuel consumption had gone through the roof.
