MTC57 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Has anyone had problems with not being able to completely fill the gas tank on the 2018 Edge Sport? My gauge will show that I have less than 50 miles to empty but the tank will only take 12 to 13 gallons in a 18.5 gallon tank. The gas will shoot out of the capless fill and puddles underneath. Even though I clean it up immediately, the gas smell doesn't go away. I never had a problem with my 2011 Limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 First you should never fill it past the first or second click. You can damage the vapour canister. Depending your average mpg it sounds normal. Even at 0 miles to empty there will still be up to a couple of gallons in the tank as a reserve.

That seems very excessive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordtech1 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 You said 50 miles to empty. What’s the actual gauge show? 1/4 or 1/8th of a tank? Distance to empty can be skewed from excessive idling. If it’s way off. Disconnect the battery and retest. That will reset DTE and averages.
