1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

You must be just like Rebecca, whenever we're in her Rav and the gauge hits the middle she starts to get nervous and says we need to get gas lol.

 

Once it hits 1/4 tank, I hit up a gas station that's "on the way"

1/2 tank? I'm good for another few days.

1/4? I know I'll run that shit low if I don't fill up right away as sometimes I get on it when on the highway

That V8 is a thirsty bitch

 

No none of my 95 through '97s had it. Pretty sure it only came on SR5

 

Off-topic

Getting frozen bloodworms today; never fed my fish in the past any bloodworms so it'll be a first

 

I know my truck, that shit sits on E and I've got about 25-30mi left

 

worm popsickles

 

Its mostly a curiosity thing, I don't know because I always fill up when it drops under 1/4. To me it seems equally plausible that I have one and its never gotten low enough to turn on, or it doesn't

I had heard that it was a question of whether you have a tach or not, but I assume yours also had tachs?

 

Haha that's funny I hated Patrick Roy. That stemmed from 93 cup finals.

 

All three of my 95-97 trucks have had tachs

 

my stripper 96 did not have a tach. only options were AC/4wd lol.

no cruise, no intermittent wipers

 

My old 4Runner gauge was so questionable. The light came on with about 40 miles to go. I ran it out of gas on purpose just to know what was accurate.

 

Perchance you are like me and never got it low enough to turn on

 

No haha, I had the fuel sender out of all of them at one point or another and I ran the first one dry once too. They're missing the second sensor for the low fuel light.

 

man hit a wall at work today... all my 01+ v6 trucks have had lights, the 01 low body did not, nor did it have a tach

 

yeah I was barely 8 years old when those went down, didn't start playing and watching hockey until I was about 11. Family was never into following sports so I didn't get attached to any one team until I was even older

 

I like filling up with 1/3-1/2 of a tank left, but since I don't drive much, walk to work, I rarely ever know how much fuel is any of my cars, so i tend to keep them filled it seems. Hell the van hasn't been filled since 3/29 down in salt lake haha

 

Don't hold it against me but....


I used to have Ducks jerseys too as a kid

 

the sender in my MR2 seems to get out of whack really quickly
I rebuilt it last winter but its already reading high/exponential again

 

What'd you do to rebuild it and have you been using high ethanol content fuel
