gmax Member 44 Member For: 20y 9m 19d Gender: Male Location: sunshine coast Posted 29/07/06 02:26 AM Posted 29/07/06 02:26 AM got some work done to my mk2 ute a while back...exhaust, injectors and bigger in-tank pump, custom tune etc.from day one the fuel gauge had been nuts, basically reading full when empty and vice versa etc, though it jumps from one to other - no smooth needle movement as tank empties either....I was not too concerned as I live along way from tuner, and will be going back soon for some more mods, but they reckon it may be a corrupt file (??? something like that) in the downloaded tune they modded... if that was the case, would it not be normal when I flash it back to standard???has anyone had similar experience???thanks for your input.
