Slow gas gauge?
I've had my 99 f-350 v-10 for about 3 months now and have noticed that it takes forever for the gauge to actually "catch up" with what is actually in the tank. When filling up it takes over 30 minutes for the gauge to read full, and when turning the truck on it takes about ten to finally settle out.
I know this is not a huge problem, but it's perty annoying. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there anything that will fix it or is it better just to live with.
Thanks in advance!
