Howdy,
I just picked up my XJ (literally, 15 minutes ago) from a dealership and I am ecstatic to say the least.
There is one problem though. When I left the lot, there was no gas in the tank (kind of rude if you ask me). When I filled it up, it only took 11 gallons, which seemed funny, as I figure these cars probably have larger gas tanks. When I got back in and started driving, the gas gauge didnt move a bit. Instead, the gas light came on after about a minute.
I know that the gas light and gauge seem to be iffy on jeeps, but I didnt think it was this bad. Where should I start in my diagnostics? I already searched the subject and couldnt find my answer. My apologies if its been asked before.
Its a 2000 4.0 if that helps.
