Thanks.  Guess you just go with whatever experience tells you is your
gauge's meaning.

I did a capacitor replacement on my analog clock (now works great) and
managed to bump the gas gauge needle off of its little springy-bob.  Got
it all back together but now it reads higher than before -- have to
drive about 40 miles before the needle starts to move -- but I actually
like that better because it seems more accurate &/or meaningful at the
low end where the info is more important.

Still better than the yardstick I used for years to check the fuel level
in my Triumph.
