Yeah they do. Drive on the E (I guarantee you won't run out of gas, you have 20-30 miles left city after that) if you really want to find out.

My low fuel light (04) comes on when Im about 1/8" away from the E line.

Dont you have some way of making all the lights light up like the 99-04 models?

my 98 GT did NOT have a fuel light. I dont know why these guys are telling you they do...mine didn't. I ran out of gas once because i was trying to test if it had one =) Trust me it doesn't LOL (or at least my 98 GT didn't).

Easiest way to tell is to put your key in the ignition and turn it to "run", check the guage and then start the car and check the gauges. If you see a "low fuel" light...then you have one...if you dont see one, you obviously dont have one...

For clarification, my 98 GT did NOT have a fuel light.

But my 2002 GT does. I think they added low fuel lights in 99.

mine doesn't have one. I didn't know that when I bought the car, and after 3 months of not seeing one, I decided to see if it really had one, so i ran the car till it ran out of gas. stuck on the side of the road, I came to the conclusion it didn't have one.

Just carry an extra gallon of gas in the trunk and drive until you're empty to see.
