Default New gas meter?

Ive searched around for a while looking at what people are saying about their gas meters. When my fuel light goes on i put in 11 to 12 in.

Is my reserve that high or is my meter messed up like ive been hearing with other blazer? If it is how do i go about fixing/replacing it? 03 4d LS btw.

You have an 18 gallon tank and the low fuel light will come on when you have ~4-6 gallons left, so pretty normal. You really should not wait for it to light up if you want the fuel pump to last, though.

That depends on how easy dropping the fuel tank seems to you.

The 95-97 Blazers don't have a low fuel light.
