Hi

Anyone can advice on how to check on the fuel gauge matter,as during driving it will shift from 30 liter to empty and then up only after sometime, and sometime it take longer for it to come up again.

Also the reserve tank light does seems to light up, how to check.

thanks

All these problems might be your cable on the meter. Disconnect and reconnect again to get better connection, or, you might just clean the contacts with liquid solvent, WD40 will do the trick.

Your reserved light either blown or the cable not connected properly.

good luck
