Re: car won't start - parked on grade V70-XC70 01

posted by  someone claiming to be Darell Dickey on  Thu Jan 25 14:50 CST 2001 [RELATED]

If this is your first or second tank of gas, the guage may be a bit confused. I've heard of this happening to others before. The next time you fill up, just make sure you fill it all the way up, and it may just fix itself. Provieded this is the problem. I park mine at rediculous nose-down angles (you've been to, or seen pictures of San Francisco hills, haven't you?) with precious little fuel (well, I guess the lowest I've been is an indicated 60 miles remaining, so that isn't TOO dry) in the tank, and I haven't yet had a starting problem.
