so I was out on a ride with Mr T and a few other ouens.... never filled or checked my fuel as the tank showed almost full  :biggrin: only to run out of fuel on the way to Jbay.... fealt like a big tit but luckily we were relatively close to the Thornhill town on the R102.

Fortunately the owner passed us on his way to his garage and stopped to offer assistance (not many people stop these days). He organised one of his attendants to fill a litre coldrink bottle which one of my buddies collected for me.. I then filled up. So lads support this little garage, they lifesavers.  :thumleft:

anyway...

what could it be that the gauge shows full but the tank empty.. took 34litres to fill.

How to fix ?
