Could the "floatibility" of a sunken, saturated, cork float be affected by the temperature of the newly added gas??? When my cork sank after being in the hospital for 3 1/2 weeks, (Me in the "hospital," Not the car!) filling with new gas to the 1/2 tank of the OLD gas caused the guage to go up to about 1/4 tank!!! Maybe it was Ole' Bill's GHOST messin' with my "MIND."
Most "weird" stuff can eventually be explained, but some keep you awake at night for MONTHS. During one of those escapades, I discovered that my dog does WHOOPEE, smelly, quiet farts in bed under the covers. When I retaliate, he never flinches!! Bill W.
