The date and speed entered are averages, because of multiple events at various times and circumstances. I seldom know how much gas I have because the gauge goes up and down without explanation. Since I don't drive a lot I can just keep track of the amount I put in the tank and fill up when I think I should. Today as an example, my gauge showed 1/2 tank. I sat in a parking lot with the engine running while waiting for a friend to finish an errand. During that 10 minutes, the gas gauge went up by about 1/8 of a tank. This was sitting on level ground in a plaza parking lot, so no slant to the tank to give a false reading. So far I have had no serious issues, but due to the fact that I am on oxygen, I could be in serious trouble if I had to wait a long time for help.

When I go to fill up my gas tank I will let it run until it stops at the pump then pump in a little more to get it to an even dollar amount, I will then get in the car and the gas gauge does not show full. For some reason the first "tick" on the gas gauge will never come on no matter how much gas you put in the car. As for the whether or not the rest of it is accurate I am not quite sure. I try to keep a decent amount of gas in the tank because I question its accuracy.
