GMC Envoy fule reading problem

Hi I have a GMC Envoy, 2005, the fuel only reads when it gets down to 1/8 of a tank, has anyone any idea why this would happen. Any help would be much appreciated. Cheers pompey

Depends on what you consider a big problem. Parts will be in the neighborhood of $300 and you'll have to drop your gas tank to replace the sender. Likely you'll have to replace some gas line at the same time. Not guaranteed, because if you live in a climate that does not cause a lot of corrosion, your lines may be ok, but it's at least reasonable to expect you may find some pretty corroded gas lines.

Why not just get the sender replaced? Why not simply fill it up and then multiply the mpg by the number of gallons you added, to indicate how far you can go? Why always put in 8 gallons?
