Low fuel Warning

Low fuel Warning
noticed whenever i get a low fuel light, if i add 3-5 gallons, the warning still stays on and the fuel gauge does not rise. However if i fill it up, this will reset the warning and gauge back to normal... any ideas if this is normal?

If a small quantity of fuel is added to a nearly emp- ty fuel tank, the fuel gage cannot measure the add- ed fuel accurately. The „remaining range“ readout will also be incorrect.

With the users manual being the size that it is unless there is something that is really bugging me then I don't bother. I believe what jhbrennan is saying though.

The fancy fuel system, like the oil level system, require you use it in a certain way. Splash and go doesn't work. Sure you have 2 more gallons in the tank, but the computers don't register it. When you gas up, fill it all the way up (the car may use that as a way to reset the max level each time for all I know).

Kangaroo...
OK - was running low (driving from ATL to FLL) and splashed 4 gallons of gas at Flash Foods (couldn't find a brand name to fill up), warning didn't change as suggested in prior posts.
20 miles later found BP and filled up - took 13 gallons.
300 miles later, showing quarter of tank remaining, starts to kangaroo - fuel starvation, no warning lights. Back off gas, gently drive 9 miles off the turnpike and BP again - BUT only 13.5 gallons to fill up (as in 3 gallons left....). Fill up, gently drive a few miles and kangaroo goes away.
What's going on? Shouldn't be running out on quarter tank left - does gauge need recalibration?
