i got a warning light ;)

fuel needles in cars often move around a bit depending on how you drive... if you accelerate hard in my car the needle will go down a bit, then when you ease off it'l come back up again, i think its just the fuel moving around in the tank making it change
yeh thats correct....if im running someone a couple of lights in a row, my needle will show almost 1/4 of a tank less but then when i start driving normally again it goes back.
Dont forget also that when you are on a hill either down or up your fuel gauge will show either more or less. when im standing on a down hill my gauge shows more petrol, when im on an uphill it shows less. Its just due to the position of the fuel sensor in the tank, and as majic777 said the way the fuel is moving in the tank
hey guys..just curious..im gonna need to fill up my car today with fuel. This is the first time im gonna be putting premium. Is there much differences between BP/Shell/Mobil?
when i used to have my rx7 i noticed a bit of difference in the fuels (car used to ping with mobil fuel) - i dont think it would matter much in this case thoQuote:

BP Ultimate all the way man....i guarantee its better in km's and performance. Its also the only one of three leading petrols that is actually 98 ron.... shell has the cleaning agent in it so its not quite as guaranteed
ok so we're talking bout the LS ... how about the DC2 .... what kinda fuel consumption we talking there. My mate with a Vtir reckons hes getting about 400 out of a tank ...
think theres a thread for dc2's mate....dc2 talk is not welcome here...LS ONLY! =P
HMMM... i think ill have to start using that BP ultimate myself ive been using the premium petrol from shells on and off and you do notice the difference but its only very slightly, ive never tried the BP ultimate but will give it a go thanks for the handy tip guys :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
My LS is my LIFE.
hey guys im onli getting 300kms 310kms out of one tank
is that right?
its a 90 model
nah...u shoudl get much much more mate. its a 50ltr tank. i got easily 400km before i filled up.
i get like 500 to 600kms off my LS tank
i thought they were 40L to thats weird mine always past full when i fill it up
my fuel light has neva been on though
the reason ur fuel gauge changes when u drive round is because of the position of the sensor and the tank u will notice goin uphill it will go down adn goin down hill it will go up or woteva my dad was saying its extremely hard and expensive to stop that from happening its normal...
its the same i duno if u guys notice but my first half of a tank goes really slow but my bottom half of it is really fast its just how the tank is made and would b hard to keep it all even
