Could be a faulty connection. Check the connectors at the tank to see if they are rusted up. Graeme Eberdeen, Scotland The message

The fuel low light keeps flashing occasionally on my 90 despite the tank being far from low in fuel. I presume it's due to the fuel sloshing around over bumps and around corners but is it usual for that to cause the light to flash? or have I got something else to fix idc! :-(



mine starts flashing at half on the fuel gauge

The message from "jOn....." contains these words:

Hello Bob. I also have a landy90. This fuel sender probably sits above and dangles the float, causing a false reading when it's low enough. Mine does exactly the same on quarter tank when braking. I would use the flashing as a guide only, so you can remember to fill up at the end of the week. ;-\

Mine flashes when its full and when its nearly empty. Its ok when its half full tho! Solution, do I take the bulb out or keep the tank at half level!!! Richard

Thanks folks, at least I know it's "normal" so will put it to the back of the pile, will check the connections when I've got a few moments to spare (and the weathers better!) would expect them to be a bit corroded after

17years.
