Refuel not showing on computer problem

Okay I apologize in advance if this problem has been posted about before. I searched for about an hour reading lots of interesting stuff about bladders and such and couldn't find anything.

This is what happened. I was at one pip when I left the house this morning and drove about 10 miles and stopped to get gas before getting on the freeway for my commute. The pump was pumping VERY slowly, like empty slow. So, I only got 2 gallons to get me halfway through my drive where I could easily stop and get more gas (and Starbucks). Well, after pumping that 2 gallons when I got in the car it didn't register on my fuel gauge at all, okay not so abnormal maybe I was lower than I thought. But, then it didn't trip the mpg tracker. You know, where it usually shows your average and mileage for that tank? It didn't go back to "0" miles. That freaked me out a little.

So when I got to the next station I only had 10 bucks so I got almost 3 gallons of gas and it did the same thing. NO change in pips and no return to "0".

I had no problems getting that fuel in. I have overfilled before but that was almost 10 tanks ago.

I have no clue what to do. I'm going to stop again when I leave work today at yet another station and fill up completely to see if that will change anything.

Has this happened to anyone else?


I have an 07 Prius, 20K miles

 

eww, it was a 1.35 green tea, I had a sore throat. I don't drink coffee and I usually don't pay for my gas out of pocket, that is what gas cards are for. It was just a random one-off.

Thanks everyone else for letting me know it's completely normal. I did drive all the way back home last night after work, about 72 miles and then stopped and filled up a little over 6 gallons. After I did that the computer did reset as you've said it would and all seems well.
