#1: petrol gauge problem Author: RyanDaley, Location: United KingdomPosted: Thu May 10, 2012 2:33 pm ---- I seem to be posting in the problems forum quite a lot lately.. feels like a bad omen going in for my MOT next month..
i went to fill up when my petrol light came on and was short of money so i just popped a fiver in and when i started the engine the gauge went straight back to where it was when i pulled into the pump.. slightly above empty, so the gauge kept going down over the day and i went to another station and put another fiver in.. the gauge didn't go up again.. so now im driving with a tenner of petrol in which is usually 1/7 of a tank but according to the display im on empty
any ideas?

The fuel light is a gallon of fuel, at least £7

£10 at one go will make the needle move to a quater tank for me.
