just driving then, and some random second car stalls, bit strange but ok, then starting it back up after letting the plug light go off, took 5 seconds to start with foot fully down on the throttle, next min fuel gauge dips, with half a tank left to a quater is that strange or is there normally a problem with dodgy gauges??
any ideas!

Dodgy fuel senders can cause the fuel gauge to mis-read. Not sure how this would relate to the stalling, that could be a blocked fuel filter or faulty pump.
I think you'd probably notice if you'd dumped 15 litres of fuel over the road :grin:

My fuel gauge drops from 1/2 to 1/4 way quicker than any other part of the tank. You won't be 'loosing' fuel, it is just due to the shape of the fuel tank :smiley:

And the poor design of the sender.
