How low will she go?
im not a big fan of sucking up sh!t from bottom of tank but i wonder how far in red is safe, i never get into it but its a fair movement on needle just in red

you wont suck up sh!t from the bottom of the tank

your tank & filler neck wont rust, and any dirt in the fuel itself gets caught in the fuel filter

mine quite happily goes to the white empty line!

Problem isn't so bad with the mk2 because as Gambit says, the tank and filler neck are plastic, therefore no rust.......shame the same can't be said for mk1 :(
