RE: Gage sending unit/pump
E-85 makes a GREAT injector cleaner but that is all it is good for.
If you are going to be going on a long trip and need to clean the injectors then fill up with E-85 and then switch back to premium after that.
It will save you money at the pump but you will use twice as much so the cost to benifit ratio is not worth it.
The best way to cut pollution is to keep your truck tuned, drive slower and combine your trips.

Pertaining to Fuel Gauge Indicator.
A few weeks ago I attempted to associate an actual fuel quantity to the scale on the fuel gauge. I turned the engine off but left the keys in the ignition, powering the fuel gauge so I could read it. My intent was to stop pumping fuel at 5 gallon increments and note the position of the needle.
It didn’t work. In fact, my fuel gauge read empty and remained there even as I drove away. I stopped, turned off the engine and restarted the vehicle. It still read empty. Two days later I was convinced I damaged the unit.
The third morning I started my Rover and the fuel gauge read correctly and it has worked properly ever since.
Suggestion: Completely depower the vehicle when refueling, like the warning on the pump says to. It is obvious that the fuel level indication system gets mad when you break these rules.
