I'm not sure, I'll have to ask the wife if she's ever had this problem in the car, I've never noticed it in the Jeep though.

I haven't driven a car in a long time. Sorry I can't help you with your question.

C'MON MAN GET SOME MORE KITTENS, HELL YOU CAN USE MY CAR

SaginawMike

So many kittens, so few recipes!

Duffy

Hahahaha, you guys are killin' me! But, to answer the OPs question; No ,there is no governor to tell you that you are out of gas. You're Jeep is sucking in air, dirt, water, rust, sludge, etc.. I'd get a bottle of injector cleaner and never test the governor theory again, but hey, that's just me.

(Kitten recipes. hahahahaha)

I doubt there's rust or sludge in a year old gas tank.

But there could be in the tanks you are filling up from.

Duffy

Maybe not where you gas-up, but here you can get all kinds of "stuff" in your tank. Ever have to dig out a couple/three handfulls of junk from around your gas-cap before you can unscrew it just to fil up? I do. Weekly.

Next time you pull a tank off and drain off the dregs, tell me if you would even put it i n you neighbors lawn mower.

Moral of the story is: Don't drain your tank dry.

smuhhh

So has anyone ever tried to run their JK's DTE display to the 0 mark? Did you instantly run out of gas? Or conversely, has anyone run out of gas prior to getting to the 0 mark? I was watching my DTE display after setting the tripometer, and was amazed at how unaccurate it is.

Mine stops estimating at 30 and starts repeating LOW FUEL
