Subject:Gas Gauge

Nearly 3000 miles after a major overhaul, including having the gas gauge and
speedometer worked on, I have a question about the gas gauge on my Syncro.  The
capacity of the Syncro gas tank is 18.5 gals but the gas gauge reads completely
empty when it gets about 16 gals. down.  It seems to ignore the fact that the
tank is larger than the regular Vanagon tank, almost like a reserve tank.  Is
this normal on the Syncro or is the gauge malfunctioning?
