Fuel Gauge

[lesstatt]

Went to Ashby Folville meet tonight in tivver....... anyway on the way there the fuel gauge went from 1/4 tnk to zero on twisty lanes, started to panic, drove out 2 hours later back to main road no twists etc and gauge went back up to 1/4 and was fine all the way home........ is this common

Yep. Ran out of petrol twice in 1st year of ownership. Ever since I have refuelled at 1/4 full, as it mean anything from 1/4 full to fumes!

I was going to go but black clouds over derby i decided to not bother and seeing the time of your post you did'nt stay long neither.
Get into the habit of filling her up and zero the trip when you get to about 260 miles start to panic
