You stay away from your motor, I'll watch my gas gage, and we'll leave it at that. It's not like I'm crapping on your threads or something.
Ooh, you got me there!

Look man, I don't want to drag this on any longer. You can heckle me all you want about wrenching, I admit it, when it comes to bolts and tools I'm pretty much the last guy you want to fix stuff.

But man, the reason I'm giving you a hard time with this thread (or any other person who asks ridiculously stupid questions for the matter) is well, pretty much self-explanatory. I mean hot damn, what's next? You gonna need some kind of beeping sound to remind me what gear you're in?

I've driven my car, zero bars, gas light on for 30 miles. When I filled up, iirc I had at least a gallon left.

There are no bad threads. Some are just better than others.

Never ran out of gas in the S. Ususally fill up at 1/2 tank unless I'm on a long trip. I do feel the guage could be more accurate, maybe more segments would help.

The damned car dings pretty regularly when I don't clip the seatbelt into place. I didn't ask for that, but it comes free. I just think it should do the same thing a couple miles before it sputters to a stop. Is it anoying enough to make me trade it in, no. But it is anoying enough to make me talk about it on a forum. Apparently I'm not completely alone.

all S2000s have a beep warning on the fuel guage if you let it get low enough. after you hear the beep, you have 10 miles left to get to a gas station.


















j/k dude.

Well now that's completely off the wall, I'm at a loss. Back away from the key board, put the crack pipe down and stop using poor Mr. Walken in photoshop.

This thread is in it's third day now, I'm certainly ready to let it fade into obscurity, but you guys just won't let that happen. (AND you know who you are!)
