[QUOTE="CBass, post: 1039823, member: 74367"] On my 2005 Ford Explorer Sport Trac This happens about four times a month, especially on cold mornings. I turn the key to the start position, the engine cranks, then stops for a second like it seized up, but then starts and then the gauge needles are all doing this vibration dance below the low end of their sweep (the right hand two are beyond the high end of their sweep). I have to shut off the engine and wait for them to stop vibrating, then when I start again they are all normal except the fuel gauge, which reads below empty with the LOW FUEL light on (even if it's a full tank) and then slowly comes back up after about 3 miles of driving. Any ideas what's causing this and how to fix it? See video I just posted at at [MEDIA=youtube]vPyeF7NRzD8[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
