Just joined this group not too long ago and can't seem to find any answers to my issues. I bought my truck and it had been very well maintained. After having the truck for about a month I got in it to leave and upon turning the key the drivers air bag exploded in my face. Can't recall if the truck had actually started all the way or not. Pretty traumatizing experience lol. Was like a bomb exploded in my face and hurt the arms as well as being dazed from the loud explosion. I went with a billet steering wheel without an airbag to avoid that ever happening again. Really no issues at this point but ammm curious if anyone else has experienced anything of the nature? Can't find anything online about it.
Now here is an issue I've been having with the fuel gauge. It never had the jittery motions thats common for them. One day as I'm driving up a decent hill and was accelerating the fuel gauge did a comeplete 360 revolution. Since then when I fill the tank the position of the needle is way past full and I always fill up right before the half tank mark which I narrowed down to be about empty. I have replaced the sending unit since then as well as the tank because if a small pinhole in one of the corners. Replaced the fuel filter aswell. Made a bone head move and ordered the 34 gallon tank instead of a 25gal but managed to secure it with some cusswprds involved but can not figure out why my fuel gauge is now sitting way off. I've even replaced the entire cluster and it's the same way. Hopefully someone can shine some light on either of these things.
