Back to the fuel gague issue for a sec, I don't think this is necessarily a problem, I have owned multiple Toys, and they have all been like this. I am not sure if it has to do with shape, or just the way the sending unit measures, but the last 1/2 always seems to go noticably quicker than the first.

I'm just sayin'....

Mine is always at empty, literally. Even just after I put fuel in the car, the needle never moves.
