Gas Gauge

Hey guys Ive got a problem. The other day I was fooling around with my friend, doing some burnout, and sliding around. On the way home i notice my gas gauge going up to F when I only filled it up half way. What do you guys think this could be? If you know what it is, whats the estimated cost in repairs? Thanks for the help in advance guys.

Thanks,
Eddy

You might have jacked your fuel float. The cost is not expensive if you trust yourself or a friend to take out your fuel pump to check the float assembly.

This happens to a lot of guys that screw around. You are not alone

Give me a shout we have guys that can help you if needed.
