OK well i was bored today so I decided to paint my guage needles red. well I didnt know that the aveo can recalibrate on their own. So I think I calibrated them back the right way. I just need someone to try something for me. Turn the key to the On position, then turn it back to the Acc position and tell me where the fuel and temp needles stop at.....I think they are suppose to stop at the last line and then after a second or two drop down the little black stoppers. Also anyone tell me what the aveo normally idles at

Ok, the gas and temp drop down as soon as you turn it off. The idle is at 1000 in park and in drive, I even drove it around a bit to warm it up, to make sure the idle was right.

do the gas and temp drop straight down to the black stoppers? Thanks for trying it for me. Greatly Appreciated. thing everything is good. when i start it up the temp goes to 1/4 then after idling for a bit it goes to 1/2 and my gas is always all over the place anyway. and speedometer just lays on the stopper because its right at zero

hmm interesting....I will have to fix my gas guage sometime then because I put it right on the bottom of the last white line. Did your guages stop at all on the the way down to the stoppers

dude very weird because my guages before also dropped then stopped at bottom for a second then dropped to the stopper(i think) my guages are making me crazy. wish I had paid attention. oh well i just wait til i get gas and figure it out. How much can our tanks hold, I knew it before then forgot. Are/were the RPMs at exactly 1grand or a little above?

I think our tanks are 12 gal. because I know for sure that the gas light comes on when you have 1.5 gal reserve. I run my gas down til the light comes on and when I fill up, it takes 10.5 gal. so thats the 10.5 gal plus 1.5 reserve. And my RPMS, they were a little above at first but after at running temp it dropped a hair at exactly 1000 RPM's
