94 Astra Auto

Weird thing with our 1.4i auto is that it runs fine on a full tank gets down to about half and starts coughing and spluttering and generally misbehaving.Like fuel starvation.Fuel gauge is ok so when it shows 1/2 it is



1/2 full..Any ideas please??

Thanks


The pipe from the sender unit down into the tank is probably fractured..... hence the problem.... when full the fuel is up over the fracture/crack and therefore fuel gets to the engine...... 1/2 full or below the fuel is below the crack and draws air.
