[ST] gas gauge accuracy

With my '01, I treat the gas gauge as just an "estimate" of what's in there.
I'm not sure why, but it measures gas level in a very non-linear way: For
the longest time, it doesn't move at all, then it moves like hell.
The way that I treat it is to pretend that when the gauge shows "full", then
starts to move from it, it's really indicating 1/2 full. And when the gauge
is actually showing 1/2, I pretend that it's showing me 1/4 full. Then I
start looking for a gas station.
Or I just follow Zoltan round and fill-up when he does. :-)))
