My gas gauge barely works too. I usually fill up when leaving the house unless my last trip was short and mild. One Sunday about 3 months ago I was driving to my baseball game as I usually do and was in a bit of a hurry when I left the house so I decided since it wasn't too far (12-15 miles) I would just remember to get gas on my way home. At the game I ripped my hamstring good just before sliding into home in the bottom of the 9th. I was carried off the field and hardly made it to my car after the game (we lost). Well I forgot to stop for gas before getting on the freeway and so planning to at the next exit. I stalled just as I merged onto the exit ramp. Got caught behind traffic at the light and was screwed. I am sitting in my car thinking how am I gonna push it when I can hardly walk and then one guy, then another jump out to help me, not knowing about my injury, I just steered and they pushed me across the intersection into the station. Bingo! I fill her up (14 gals) and try and start the car, with dry bowls it needs to turn over some. Just as I'm on the last turn before the battery dies she fires up. Thank you! I was never so glad to just get home.
