low-fuel warning lamp

If it's anything like the one on my 1986 90 2.5 petrol then I expect someone has disconnected it to stop it constantly flashing on and off at anything under half full. It's driving me mad.

I shall keep that in mind...

AIUI the originals had the switch on the sender to operate the light, but later replacements didn't. I think I still have one of the latter in my garage. Never got round to fitting it cos the original started working again, and then I sold the motor 1986 ex-mil 90 with 200tdi upgrade.

the one on our 90 flashes on and off at random when its full and flashes on and off at random when nearly empty. Its ok when about 1/2 tank tho. That reminds me, must take the bulb out. Richard

I'll second that

Such a thing would have been useful this morning as I ran out of fuel going up a slight hill and just about spluttered around the corner and to where I normally park and get the jerry can out.

I have been running around on a practically empty tank for too long and decided to fill the whole thing up for once, mind you it costs :(

Esp if the tank is full of rust and holes:)

Well it's certainly cheaper than filling the tank with fuel, although I believe it does have its drawbacks.
