Dodgy Petrol Guage?

[P14NJH]

ive just been to the petrol station and put £61 worth of petrol in my is200 from just above empty, which should fill the car, however on the way back home ive glanced at my petrol guage and its showing just above a quater full?!?!?!

ive checked all the pipes and the tanks, no leaks and all the petrol definalty went into the tank, but even if £61 hadnt filled the tank, it would definatly fill the tank more than that.

so anybdy got any suggestions

Was it on empty for a long time?

I only ask because mine always sticks if left empty for over a week or so, after a couple of fills it goes back to normal again.

have you removed your speedo cluster at all recently for fitting a dial kit or LED`s for example

If so check that the plugs are in firmly or try unplugging them and plug them back in (all done with the car off)

I had a simular problem with my altezza as the gauage never went below 1/4 of a tank with the car on

I found this out by running out of petrol twice
