Most likely the sender unit in the gas tank. You can get a repacement from the wreckers.
The sender unit is under the rear seat. The rear seat has a VERY specific removal procedure. Do NOT just pull up the front of the seat cushion; you will wreck the seat!
My '91 gets between 28 and 30mpg (US gallons). The tank holds a total of 13 gallons. The theoretical maximum distance that could be travelled is about
390 miles, or 625km.
Since the Low Fuel light comes on with about roughly three gallons left in the tank, you're more likely to need to fill up after about 300 miles, or
500km.
You may not know this, but it's a *terrible* idea to run the tank down before filling. You should always keep the tank as full as possible all the time. Lots of air space in the tank means lots of water in the tank and lots of corrosion and scale in the tank. All very bad things.
today ( i filled up yesterday) the meter went up to full...i dono what the deal is now...i dont trust it i?ve been filling up at approx 410-420km, guess that?s ok
