            Obviously not as far as you thought/hoped!!!

            Haven't ran out yet myself. Let us know how you go with priming etc.

            PS I have done it in a truck which isn't pleasant!

            Just read your sig and you have a petrol so priming is not your thing

              I've been worried about this happening to me..

              I've been driving around with low fuel in the tank for a fortnight.. I have a long range tank to be installed.. Just need a spare couple of hours to do it..

                  No problem priming just put 5L in and started it.

                  Hour late to work and running out of fuel was not
                  a good enough excuse. Teach me for telling the truth.

                    Just filled her up. 89L.
                    How big is ther tank again?

                    Problem though. Fuel gauge still
                    Showing empty????

                    Anyone else had this happen?
                    Will it fix it's self?

                      88 ltrs if I remember right, plus filler neck.
                      Maybe you need to give your tank a tap, float stuck on crap at the bottom.
                      Alternatively get a oxy set happening and heat up until red hot under middle of petrol tank. Report back here what happens

                            My old Magna fuel gauge used to just rapidly drop by about half when driving around town or on country trips, and would also occasionally get stuck on empty.

                            Managed to sell it for the Paj before I got it fixed

                              Well after a 25min drive home I now have 3/4 of a tank. Might be full tomorrow.

                              Looking at that specs sheet. Who the hell gets 10.9L/100Km's on the highway and 14.7L/100km's combined!!!
