	I just noticed that on the gas gauge on my recently purchased 2001 9-3 it has F at the top (for "full" I presume) and at the bottom is R. My question; what the heck does R stand for? Maybe refill? Thanks in advance for this lesson in Saabology.

It could be Reserve: Either switch to reserve or find the reserve tank in the boot I remember an old VW Beatle; these cars didn't have an indicator. But it had the luxury of a handle to a small reserve tank, just enough to get you to the pump. Before that, people used to break off a twig and stick it into the tank for measuring.

I'm not sure how many miles it's meant to be good for after that but I'm sure I've done about 15 miles without a problem. Graham

It came in handy a couple of times. Graham

Only time I've had a reserve on anything was on a motorcycle. Had to manual switch a lever to use the reserve. ~GJ~
