Idrees Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 Just a random question, when does your fuel warning light come on? When your needle reaches the empty line? Or just as it is approaching the empty line? Like a few mm away from it?Thanks guys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 It comes on when hitting reserve? so on the empty line not sure if i have one never let it get that far tbh.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Newbe Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 In a manual ive got for the starlet it says it comes on when the fuel level falls below 7 litres.Also think you inbox is full matey Matt Quote Link to post Share on other sites

JAG Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I didnt even realise starlets had one?Cant believe I've never seen mine on? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 ^^^^^^ Yup totally agree EP fuel gauge = major fail Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bluebear Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 I've never ever seen the light on, even when the needle has been showing nothing, no matter what incline the road is. Can't decide whether the bulb is busted, or whether its a bag of. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garbla900 Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 i leave mine on for a day or two cause when i looked when the light came on i still had 10 liters. Tbh i think its just to get you to buy more fuel to keep the econemy going. Like when you get it imported the raise the fuel empty marker. but saying that on my old n/a when the light went on that was it needed fuel pronto. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavidAshton Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Had mine on this morning on the way to the petrol station. Needle was a few mm above the bottom line. Was quite entertaining though everytime I put my foot down it got brighter. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
