I have a question about automatic fuel transfer between tanks on a 2005 Chevy 3500.
I was left stranded today with an out of fuel rig...
Monday when I fueled, I filled both tanks, and right after leaving the station, the fuel gauge dropped to E and the low fuel lamp lit.
The mechanics at the motor pool told me to keep driving it if it was drivable, and that I did... until it ran out of fuel today. The boneheads then left me to get my rig & myself back to the facility since regulations forbid them from using our tow equipment of "Out of Fuel" vehicles. This is considered an operator's error.
Not only did I run out of fuel, but it was fount that the rear tank never transferred its fuel to the system! I was out of fuel with one of the tanks still full.
I have the gauge on E, the low fuel lamp lit and one full tank.... any ideas?
Thanks.
