I wonder if someone hasnt replaced the fuel pump unit in the past with a fuel pump for a 19 gallon tank and put it in a 15 gallon tank. They are different. The fuel level float is the only diffence.
I also have a 97 SE. I did the fuel tank mod and now my fuel gauge reads full for 85 miles before it starts to show signs of usage. This is probably one of my favorit mods as it didnt cost anything and then I am not stopping at a gas station every other day. I also could not figure out why I could only put 10 gallons of gas in. I put a 5 gallon gas can in the back and drove until it was out of gas. My low fuel light comes on with 4 gallons of gas left in the tank. Now when I see my low fuel light come on I know I can safe go another 65 miles before running out.
I would bet that if you did the vent tube mod you could get 19 gallons in your tank and your gauge would then read full.
you only need to trim the vent tube. I left the filler tube alone, I liked the idea of the anti siphon hinderance to a would be theif.
