#1: Filling up with petrol Author: samreecestrange, Location: Folkestone, KentPosted: Fri Feb 04, 2011 9:22 am ---- Went to full up the car and got a surprise when kept cutting out at only 53 quid. never filled it all the way up before so ignored it. Got back in the car andwas about 3/4s full.
So does anyone know why it wont take anymore?
Thanks for any help

#3: Re: Filling up with petrol Author: kieron, Location: in the housePosted: Fri Feb 04, 2011 9:30 am ---- dodgy fuel gauge they was a technical bulliten on some 206,s that was reading 3/4 when full and 1/4 when empty
if it clicked that means its full so must of had a dodgy fuel gauge

#5: Re: Filling up with petrol Author: samreecestrange, Location: Folkestone, KentPosted: Fri Feb 04, 2011 9:37 am ---- how I don't have a leak, was the dodgy fuel gauge a recall by peugeot or just a common issue. However mine definitely doesn't read a 1/4 when empty as ive run it much lower than that.

My low fuel light comes on at 1/4 of a tank.

#9: Re: Filling up with petrol Author: samreecestrange, Location: Folkestone, KentPosted: Fri Feb 04, 2011 1:16 pm ---- ok well, ill check for leaks anyway, and is there a way to change the fual gauge and make it correct.
It will annoy me big time
