well the trip gauge would be a fantastic way to keep track... BUT like my
odometer... it doesnt work... shocking ... so yeah ... i had been filling up
once it got to the orange block... and i didnt do it this week....it didnt
go all the way to the left side it was at the orange area... but not really
even "in the orange"....the lucky thing was, i was in front of my house...i
was warming up the van... and during warm up ... it was getting weird on me
and going rrrrrrrRRRRRrrrrrrRRRrrrrrrrrrRRRRRRrrrr.......pleh... and it
scared me at first ... and i tried to start it again ...she started
fine...RRRRRpleh...... so i am pretty sure she's just running on
fumes...yeah good start to the middle of my week...
