    Fuel gauge malfunction. When tank filled gauge reads empty. As fuel is used gauge operates more effectively. Service engine light periodically comes on due to "low Fuel level" $500 to $600 repair estimate

    I changed the fuel level sender (involves dropping the fuel tank) with a new sender and the problem was solved.
