Dodgy fuel gauge?

Post by b4rk3r »

So while driving home a few nights ago i was low on petrol and didn't want to put texaco crap in. I drove to the other side of Coventry to get some Optimax, didn't think i'd make as the fuel gauge was below the lowest mark :oops: BUT the red light didn't come on once.

On all my previous 2s the light would come on when the gauge had about 1 notch left.

So how do i find out if my gauge is out? Is there a way of calibrating it at all?
