    The fuel level gauge on my 2012 f150 xlt supercab does not register all of the gas in tank. I can fill it up to where it clicks off n usually 30-35 gal full tank but it shows only 1/2-3/4 on gauge then sometimes it’s does goto full any help? Thanks in advance

    Replace the Evaporator Purge Valve. These go bad, cause a vacuum in the tank which causes it to pull in. If it still reads bad, you'll also need to pull the fuel pump assembly from the tank to replace it, because the tank pulled in enough to bend the fuel pump assembly. If you let the issue gone on without repair, you can end up with fault codes from too rich a fuel mixture, stalls, etc.
