2005 hdi 1.6
I've had this a couple of times and each time its sorted itself out.
Its constantly on empty basically even though i put in 2 gallons.
Any ideas?

How much does 2 gallons cost? If mines on low, it won't register £10 of fuel.

Mine does register normally on 2 gallons.
Checked the ohmage on the fuel sender unit, all seems okay with the ratings I found online.
Will throw about £40 in today and go over a bumpy road as my float may be the issue.
Cannot get the sender out as it's tight as f*ck!

screwdriver and hammer, if i remember rightly it has 1 or 2 chunky lugs that you hit with.
Mine was tight, but with a bit of calm, loosens slowly.

A few tabs snapped on mine, so didn't want to completely ruin it when I used hammer and screw driver.

Did you depressurize the fuel system, before you attempted.
