Hi all
Just an advice, if you see the low fuel warning lamp is “on” ,fill the tank as soon as possible. How ever there will be 5-8 litters will be remain in the tank and you can drive around 30-50 KM (depend on the fuel consumption) the most impotent thing is the Sensor in side the tank. There is a variable resistor with a floater will tell you the fuel level and the low fuel sensor is a Themister (electronic component) tells you, if the tank empty.
This how its works
If the Themister is in side the patrol (bath) the resistance is very high and warning bulb is off. But if its not is the petrol (bath) the Themister will be heated up the repentance will be low and the warning bulb will “on”. But if you drive with that condition the sensor (Themister) gets over heated. This is not good for sensor. it could burn, if you do this continually.
It happens to me. I normally drive 20KM with warning light on condition coz patrol price is very high and some difficult conditions .
Thanks
