[QUOTE="Thomas Rogers, post: 801452, member: 60724"] Had a very similar symptom and my Ford dealer recommend stop using the large chain that sells 90% of the gas in our local area. He said that all the people that have been coming in complaining of a "sluggish-to-rise" fuel guage were buying gas from the same station, and they must have something wrong with their gas. The Einstein at the dealer repair center gave the advice he did, not recognizing that his is a local/community Ford dealer, and that most of his customers are local and most buy their gas from that same, local station that is only 1/8 mile from the dealership. So he was guilty of an "attribution error"; assuming that the cause was attributed to a common link, but not recognizing that the common link was SHARED by most in the sample pool. I think there is a problem with the Ford sensor guage, IMHO. TJR [/QUOTE]
