The gas gauge in my 1991 745t has always been slow. I figured it was designed that way to smooth out or average over the jiggles that occur in a moving vehicle. But last night I filled up the tank and came only a quarter of the way up and stayed there for 3 miles or so. After I made a right turn it came up to about 3/4 full and barely drifted noticeably higher for another 5 to 6 miles. Is something going wrong, and how do I fix it?
