fuel gage problem - Page 2

Ah Thomas, you've damaged the fuel gauge coolant supply. It's connected to the little tank under the bonnet. You know, the one you put water in when the engine gets too hot. It's an easy fix, just rest your finger tips on the top of the expansion tank with your wrists resting on the bonnet slam panel. Apply light pressure downwards and get a friend to slam the bonnet. It won't help the fuel gauge, but it means you won't be able to type any more @##@#@s like this for a few weeks
You're welcome

Top secret Euro NCAP crash testing?

I too have a fuel gauge problem on the 190..

Every time I put fuel in, the needle stays at the very top only briefly? What could this be!?

Its seems as if in no time at all the needle is back down the bottom of the gauge and the 'faulty fuel gauge warning light' comes on and I have to put more fuel in it again!

I've come to the conclusion, that either the level sensor is playing up, or I have a massive fuel leak?.. Maybe even 6 massive leaks, probably!?

Any ideas what's going on?

1. Check the wires again
2. Next time get Connor to come to you instead
3. Is this the 4x4 R75 you were building? If so its still too low
4. Buy a decent keyboard as all your letters are in the wrong place.
5.Is there any fuel in it?

You used to have a lot of support on here Thomas but I think it’s rapidly diminishing. You need to get in touch with reality young man

It's GONE!

And one more thing Thomas, (if that is really your name) I would really suggest to you that you remove your website BEFORE someone starts taking legal action against you. There are just so many things on that website that makes you liable.

Have spent a little time re-reading this & other threads the OP has started & you begin to wonder.

1. The biggest wind up ever. If it is it has worked to a degree.

2. Who's dafter, him for posting or us for replying. Maybe we should give the threads a wide berth.

To me it's getting beyond the point of having any basis in reality to being embarrassing.

Is it time for a Mod to have a quiet word in his ear, as IMVHO it is not now showing the club to the casual observer in a good light.

Regards

Paul
