Hey guys, please excuse me as i dont know as much as you jedis.
recently got my bongo, but i dont think that it has seen over 2L of petrol

thanks Badger

Re: Fule Gauge
You almost certainly need to put a extra earth onto the fuel sender unit..
You will find this behind the drivers seat under the carpet....There is a cover plate....remove this and put a wire from the Black to one of the screws.....99% chance this will sort this very common problem
