Slow Fuel Gauge on 2005 F250 SD

If you leave the ignition on while refueling, the gauge will come up real slow. This will also happen if you have it in the accessory position (such as listening to the radio with the engine off). The fuel gauge level is averaged to prevent your gauge from jumping up and down when the fuel sloshes around in the tank. If you shut the ignition off while refueling, it should come up right away when you start the truck.
