Exclamation Attn: Fuel Gauge Repair Appt. Holders!

Those of you who have scheduled for fuel gauge concerns this Saturday- I need to ask for a little help, please.

OUR TECHNICIANS WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU COULD ARRIVE ON SATURDAY WITH 1/2 TANK OF FUEL OR LESS.

To replace the fuel sender(s) in your vehicle, my technicians are going to have to go into your fuel tank. As you can probably imagine, it is MUCH easier to do this if they are not dealing with a fuel tank that is brimming over with fuel. So, if you could, time your fill-up so that you don't arrive at Lokey Infiniti with a full or nearly full tank.

My technicians thank you in advance.

To help anyone leaving from Orlando gauge how much gas to start out with it's about 120 miles from Waterford to Lokey.

Wes,

Don't put more than 6 gallons in your car before you leave. Averaging just over 20mph you will actually have a little more gas in your G than you left with since it's about a 120 mile one way trip.

That is only 6 gallons. You got it, just 6!

Just to be SURE we have what we need, would everyone who is scheduled for fuel gauge repairs please chime in. Be sure to include the YEAR and TYPE(sedan or coupe) of your G. I have one last chance to order parts today.

Thanks...

I just now saw this thread, I assumed you wanted the gas tank low. You guys were fast with my car!! Atlantic Infiniti never would fix my gas tank. I can finally tell how much gas is in my car again w/o the light coming on at 250mi. Again, Thanks John for the great service!!

So what does this fuel sender fix actually do, or better said, what is it that's broke that needs fixing?

Thumbs up

For anyone that had good service with Lokey, including myself, why don't you leave some good comments for them under the trader rating? I am sure he would appreciate it.

If you have not done this before, just click on the number under LokeyInfiniti and at the end of "Trader Rating" in any post that John has authored. Very quick and simple.

Good idea Tony. I thanked John at the event, sent him a PM thanking him and would be glad to give him a good comment under the trader rating.
