Default Empty Gas Gauge makes me Paranoid!

Even if I JUST saw the last bar go out, with the electronic gauge I can't see the "below empty" part of the fuel tank that always told me HOW empty I was. So I immediately feel like I'm about to RUN OUT! And with the fairly rough behavior of the HCH II motor, who KNOWS if its really choking to a halt!
That said, I at last got a 602 mile tank, and made it to the gas station. I put in 11.2 gallons. So I reckon I had .4 gallons left, correct? That's 20 or 30 miles!
Oh well, more Excitement from the HCH II ! Peter
