15mpg on my ST wtf? Options

[mikecelica]

i recently was tryna do my gauges and broke the pointer for the gas gauge and the little ACTUAL NEEDLE that is inside a lil motor which controls the fuel gauge. anways i couldnt fix it and now my gauge is broken but after about 300km = 190miles , the gas light comes on. so do the actual needle and whatver controls the gas light work together as in if one gets messed up so is the other or no. cuz it cant be possible im gettin half the fuel economy i shud be getting. my car is pretty stock, i checked gas tank and lines no leak anywhere..??? THANKS FOR ANY HELP.

the guage jsut reads an electrical signal it doesnt actually control the fuel consumption im pretty sure off. ive never heard of an st loosing that much mileage, i would seriously suggest taking it to a shop to run an eng code check and see if any error codes come up. Also make sure they check the fuel system, fuel pump, fuel filter injectors etc
