Taking my DSDP out today to top off fuel. Got to wondering about the information center/odometer in the dash. It says lo fuel after filling up then says fuel 1, on drive home. Question, where in the owners information stack of stuff does it explain about the infomation center. I can't find it anywhere.

Spartan chassis?

I found a one page Spartan paper on the dash operation.

The only thing related to your situation I see is;

When "Fuel Remaining" is displayed, press the "right arrow button" for 3 seconds to reset the "Fuel Remaining" & "Fuel Economy" data.

If that doesn't help, then a call to Spartan would be in order.

Thanks, I was amazed that I could not find anything in both Spartan and Newmar books about the Odometer/Trip center. Maybe it isn't that big a deal or doesn't give much info anyway.

Not familiar with the exact info center on the 2004 models, but the 2008 Ventana info center which made by Amtek provides a lot of info on engine, transmission and other operating parameters. Instruction book is at least 20+ pages so it might worth your while to contact Spartan to get the proper instruction manual.
