Eventually though I had to buy a new sender unit. For a 16v'er, they are Ã‚£57 at ECP, so not too bad, although hopefully its something a bit cheaper!

yeah i thought putting more juice in would make the float... "float" but it hasnt moved it... may dig the sender out the tank see if it moves... :sick:
