How low can u go

[Sharpeee]

This was my fuel gauge after 259 miles over the weekend, 46 Ltr to fill the tank so there must have been a few miles left



Dare u go lower?

No!
You'll need a new fuel filter.
Healthy car you have there, good figures or what.

I an out at 70 on the A1, overtaking an HGV, with 3 times that on the gauge. Don't trust the gauge if you have been driving since brimming it.

I have been a little lower than that reading of yours, 285 miles 49.66L to fill up..This averaged 26.1 mpg according to Fuelly.com

I have also been in about exactly the same position as your reading.... And ran out of petrol

Put 2 lts in from a jerry can and drove 2 mile to a garage and filled up with 53 Lts.. Work that out if you can

Since that day of running out when it looked like I was still good for 20-30 miles I fill up via the trip.

EDITED.... Ps lovely color car you have there.

Engine was new around 9K ago, have to admit most of it was motorway with roof on to keep the DMU from looking like cousin it

Can someone explain that one, pick up pipe always draws from the very bottom of the tank?

Just before Christmas, I let mine get to about that point. I got 57 litres in it, which is supposed to be the tank capacity, so must have been on the last litre. I'd say yours is under-reading, which is a good thing!
