^Good write-up - It's like an episode of Mythbusters.
The one thing that I find a bit annoying with the whole inaccurate fuel bar issue is that the bars are driven by the microcontroller that runs the instrument cluster. It receives the direct input from the fuel level sender and turns on the appropriate number of bars based on that data. So, it would have been incredibly easy for the SW Engineer to add a fudge factor so that the bars behave in a more linear fashion. |
