I have yet to run my tank low enough to trigger the gas light or so i think.

My question is that when u flip the key on but not start it should the gs light illuminate like on most vehicles? All im seeing is CEL, Brake and one other i cant put my finger on at the moment.

Is there a fuel light on these damn things? Where is it?

I feel like an idiot for asking but ive been told there is no such thing as a bad question...

 

Ive really only triggered the gas light once. but when i turn my 4runner over or just turn the the key, i dont see my gas light. my guess is your not suppose to.

 

not positive on the '85 but toyota likes putting the light right by the "E" on your gas gauge hope that helps

 

mine never does...

 

My 89 22re pickup does not have one or if it does it does not work . I have ran my truck on just fumes and never had the light come on.

 

i wasnt even aware that our trucks had a gas light...

 

yeah it took me almost a year before i realized mine did

 

im kinda tempted to run her outta gas to see if mine works.

 

ok mine comes on but it waits untill your wayyyy past empty about the time that your wondering if you will even make it the last mile to the station its like " uhhhh by the way your low on fuel" THANKS ALOT I GOT THAT

 

my 91 pickup doesn't have a gas light have ran it out a few times and never seen one some modles don't have them i don't think could be wrong and maybe mine is just broken donno

 

iv had mine come on once in the 3 years iv had it... the tank has to go almost completly empty, like one gallon left maybe. its a little red led next to the E on the gas gauge.

 

yea it has one. mine does anyway. damn thing waited until i ran out of gas to come on though.

 

my gas gauge moves whenever it feels like it. it will stay on full for like 50 miles then drop down to 3/4 or so then when its empty it will sit on E for a day or two... so i never know when its really empty. its cool to know i have a light now though.

 

My 84 SR5 doesn't have a gas light. I thought it did, and then I almost ran out of gas. I went to the owner's manual, and there is no mention of it. My 89 had one though.

 

hmm interesting set of responses, not too sure what to make of all of this. i guess next road trip i have my dirt bike with me ill just keep driving and see if i run out then i will have fuel in the bed to use.

 

I don't know about your85' but my 84' dosen't have one at all.

 

My 1990 4Runner has a light right beside empty. Once the light turns on I can usually pinch an extra 40-50 kms out of it..
