Yes, key on, engine off, the fuel gauge should work.
How do you shut off the fuel in a avalanche?
There is no fuel shut off on the vehicle, but as long as the key is off no more fuel will be pumped out of the tank. If you are changing the fuel filter only what is in the lines will run out. If the fuel pump is a problem pull the fuse.
Is there a specific fuse for the fuel gauge in 2002 Honda CR-V?
There is no specific fuse all the guages run on one supply. Locate the fuel tank and take the connector off the terminal on the tank and ground it with the ignition on. If the fuel guage goes all the way to Full then the unit in the tank is faulty. If you have not response post another question and I will answer that on where to look next.
How do you test the fuel pump on a 92 aerostar?
You can test it to see if it is actually running. Have someone stand at the fuel filler door with the fuel cap removed while someone else turns on the ignition without starting the vehicle. The fuel pump should run for a few seconds and then shut off. If you do not hear it run you might have a blown fuse or defective fuel pump relay. If so check the fuse and fuel pump relay. If it does run it still can be defective, it may just be running but not pumping fuel. The only way to know if it is actually pumping fuel is with a fuel pressure test. This is done at the fuel rail with a fuel pressure gauge.
How accurate is a fuel gauge in determining when one would run out of gas?
The fuel gauge in a car is fairly accurate when determining when one will run out of gas. The fuel gauge is a little inaccurate when there is very little gas left in the car.
Does a 1996 Nissan 200SX have a fuel cut off valve?
No, it is fuel injected so the computer simply stops injecting. It does have an inertia switch which cuts off the fuel pump after an accident. If you want to depressurize the fuel system you can remove the fuse from the fuse panel that powers the electric fuel pump and then just run the car until it stalls.

How do you test your fuel pump on a 2003 Ford Taurus?
First off make sure the pump is actually running. Have a helper turn the ignition key to the on position without starting the engine. With the fuel filler door open and cap off listen at the fuel tank and you should hear the pump run for a few seconds and then shut off. If you do not hear the pump running check the fuel pump fuse and fuel pump relay. If they are both good then the fuel pump is defective. Even if the relay & fuse are good and the pump is running that does not necessarily mean it is actually pumping fuel. The fuel filter can be clogged or the pump may be running but not pumping fuel. A fuel pressure test at the fuel rail with a pressure gauge will verify the condition of the pump.
How do you test 2004 dodge stratus fuel pump?
You will need a helper. Have your helper sit at the steering wheel while you listen at the fuel filler door with the fuel cap off. Have a helper turn on the ignition without starting the engine. You should hear the fuel pump run for a few seconds and then shut off. If you do not hear it run either the fuel pump is the defective or the fuel pump fuse is blown or the relay is the defective. Check the fuse in the relay first. If they are good the fuel pump needs replacing. If you hear the pump run then you know the fuse and relay are good. But this does not necessarily mean the pump is actually pumping fuel. In order to determine if the pump is actually pumping fuel you will need to run a fuel pump pressure test at the fuel rail. What ever you do make sure your replace the fuel pump filter if it is replaceable.

How do you check if fuel pump is working 99 Montana?
Get a helper and have them turn on the ignition without actually starting the engine. While they do this, you listen at the fuel filler door with the door open fuel cap off. You will hear the pump run for a few seconds and then shut down. If you hear nothing check the fuel pump fuse. If the fuse is good replace the fuel pump relay. If you still hear nothing the pump is defective and needs replacing. If you do hear it run it may still be defective and may not be actually pumping any fuel or the fuel filter may be clogged, so replace the filter before procedding. A fuel pressure test with fuel pressure gauge will verify condition of fuel pump that is running.
