Default Fuel Problem.....

I put £30 (22l) of fuel in on saturday last, and the fuel light came on today....

Having covered 95 miles!!!!!!! currently at £1.37 per litre thats $2 and just short of $10 per gallon (4.55L)..

I wouldn't mind so much, but the roads are virtually non-existant after this winter - more holes than a block of leerdammer!!

Time to get to work on a HHO system to substitute the Diesel......

While I feel your pain on the cost of fuel, you are getting over 16miles/gallon. I am envious as I get 14miles/gallon.

Lets compare apples to apples, he's getting 16mpg on a turbodiesel that most claim an average of 24-26mpg with....

Got a brake caliper hanging up/ dragging? Maybe a fan clutch thats not releasing?
