Thought i was running on fumes, the gauge read 1mm above the bottom line.

I still only managed to get 49 litres in it!

 

60 litre tank I believe

 

indeed

 

well its better that it does that rather than overreading!!

 

before putting in 49 lts was the petrol light on?

If it's an earlier model then you'd have a 50 litre tank.

That would have been close!

 

LOL If its a 60l tank like mines I've managed to put about 57 into it At this point the needle is well off the black that indicated empty and looks as if the gauge is switched off

 

is there a low fuel light? (MY00)

 

er no not that i'm aware of stop drivin like a loon trick m8 lol
Si

 

my MY98 has a fuel light... comes on w/ abot 9-10 litres left

 

does a 02 wagon yplate have a fuel warning light?

dont really want to run too low in case is aint and i end up stuck in the middle of nowhere!!!

 

Yes a low fuel light on MY00

Not sure how much is actually left in , but I have driven about 20 miles with the light on (motorway 80mph) and got 55 litres in and that includes filling the pipe up too

 

Bug-eye is the same as the later Classics, the fuel warning light comes on with around 10 litres left in the tank.

 

Yup - MY02 wagon with low fuel light stuck on until I popped into Adams at Aylesbury on Tues night on my way home to Yorkshire..... Managed to get 41 quid of SUL in.


And did anyone see that black Evo 8 FQ on Adams forecourt? Looked AWESOME!!!

 

I have to time my fuel stops right, i use optimax so need to make sure im near one when im ready to fill, otherwise its a 20 mile detour!

At least i have a warning light now..

 

Scooby_Si

for sale scooby_si's car complete with white look dash and no low fuel light hehe

 

not any more just white dials (anyone wana buy 2 broken rev dials BTW?) lol

 

I've run my classic to the bottom of the E before and still only managed to get 58 litres into the 60 litre tank.

 

galv,
MY99 indeed has a fuel light. Fuel light positively glares at you - could do with its own bright switch really, you can't just ignore it. Came on last night with the needle at the bottom of the E line and I got 52 litres in the tank a couple of kms later.
