So I just recently got this GT500 this weekend, and I went to go check the gas tank because the car been sitting all the gas is only on the driver side. What causes this and is this common with the 07 to 08
The car does have half a tank of gas drivers side is full passenger side bone dryYour fuel tank is a saddle bag design with the filler neck feeding the driver's side. The fuel pump assembly is on the driver's side with a crossover feed line to siphon fuel from the passenger side. You have two sending units with variable resistors (left and right sides) that when combined will give you an accurate fuel level indication on the dash.
If your gas tank was completely empty and someone only put 3-5 gallons of fuel in it, that would explain your condition. If you fill up the tank, it should balance out the fuel level in both sides. It does not sound like you have an issue.
Add more fuel and it should start migrating over to the passenger side near the top of the tank. If you look under your car at how the fuel tank straddles the driveshaft, it may make more sense.The car does have half a tank of gas drivers side is full passenger side bone dry
I jacked up the car from the driver side to make it migrate and didn’t move. I’m gonna siphon it to the other side.Add more fuel and it should start migrating over to the passenger side near the top of the tank.

Logged on for the first time in years, and saw that this subforum has 6 posts in the last 7 weeks. Then I saw your post (and others) and now I see why. This place is dead because of you, because you run everyone off. But hey, you're the king, right?
My thoughts on the lack of involvement and post counts has to do with the fact that the cars are older and most everyone has either moved on to a different car to modify or have completed all of the modifications they wanted to perform on these older cars, so they quit posting or researching for new modifications they want to do. Unfortunately for the forum it loses interest for the ones that are still involved and has nothing new to offer the few that check in periodically over longer periods of time such as yourself fullboogie. Also it seems that a few people use the forums today as a form of entertainment to argue with other members, which causes the moderators to become heavy-handed in enforcing the rules. Unfortunately I've seen this a number of times over the years in different forums on numerous topics. I've been the target for a few of these nefarious persons over the years and have learned that to be actively posting on a forum isn't worth the aggravation once this happens. One tactic a guy from Finland used to garner knowledge from me was to start an argument with me so I'd post a lot of technical information to prove to him that I was correct and his comments were wrong. It was his method of learning. After a while it got old and I quit posting to that forum and have never gone back to it in the last 10 years. This was a forum that specialized in Class 8 trucks. When you have a few people that constantly cause issues, the few good people will eventually find another avenue to express their interests causing the forum to lose new informational posts that both the people such as yourself that checks in periodically and the daily posters will see.
I can understand your pointI agree with everything you said, Bad. But the problem here is the mod on this subforum. The OP asked a legit question being new to this platform. There were some very helpful responses, but then 03Cobra started shit with his stupid "cool story bro" meme. What new guy is going to stick around for that?
Years ago there was a self proclaimed "instagram influencer" on here who constantly shit posted, and some of the advice he was giving to new guys was outright wrong and dangerous. I took to calling him out over his posts. So did 03cobra take care of the troll? No, he sent me a private message calling me an asshole. That was the final straw, so I logged out and never came back. Yesterday, for some reason, I thought "let's see what's going on with the forum" and logged in. And nothing's changed, same mod being an asshole.
So the OP is likely going to leave and never come back. And this 20+ year veteran of this forum is once again going to sign out and delete the bookmark. And some people openly wonder why forums such as this one are dead.
Actually, I find this very offensive by @fullboogie. I highly doubt he'll have proof of my calling him an asshole, or who the troll was he said I never dealt with. I would never do that. 98% sure most of the guys around here like me. Maybe involve @SID297 to see if I'm a reason all forums are dying. No, maybe assbook is a machine these people who can't stand up for themselves is a safe haven for stupid. If you're so worried about me, start a poll to oust me. I like to joke around, that's just me. I'm a happy guy, unlike you who comes in here after 4 years and complains. I'm sure you whine about everything as you get older. You will be 57 in a few months.
There was a quote I read a few years ago that should be taken to heart when reading another person's written words. Unfortunately I can't remember who wrote it any longer to give them credit for it.Actually, I find this very offensive by @fullboogie.
