Re: petrol guage problems..
I tried the nut on mine and it stopped it flicking around - now its just fixed at 3/4 full. Stays the same till the red light comes on. Any ideas if this is one or both of the senders or something else?
Cheers!

Leaking at the bulkhead end on a braided cloth type pipe - pissing I should say - plus another leak more in the middle- would explain occasional smell of petrol
looks a piece of peepee to swap too and halfrauds just done me proud whoop whoop!

Re: Found a leak, quick help would be very much appreciated!
Hi guys, what engine is that? Does the rubber end pipe on the fuel line scenario apply to the 325? Lost a load of fuel today and had to pull up.. Area of leak was under passenger side of engine bay.
