Noobest Question Ever

[AutoTrust]

I often Kramer it, and In my series 1 when the fuel is low the light comes on and it tries to stall around left hand corners! the most fuel it has ever taken is 63l allowing for a comfortable 2l. Best k's ever was about 580, average is about 300.

My car seems to like V power racing, finally no pinging!

I do that in my Van, because I hate filling it up during the day. I got like 560 out of it once, but like you said, it started cutting out

Can someone confirm if the fuel light turns on when in ingnition for a R32?

Mine doesn't light up and wondering if this was a feature added into r33+

I have a 93 R32 GTS-T and the fuel light does not light up when turning on the ignition.

And incase you are wondering, the fuel light in my car does work because it came on today when i parked at work, i parked on the side of the road and the road dips a lot into the ditch so the car was on an angle and the light was on. When i pulled away after work the light wasnt on and the fuel gauge rose a bit again, but regardless it had done 500km so i knew it was time to fill up, but it took 51.5lts, so it wasnt terribly low!

That's pretty bad fuel consumption, something definately not right there!! I always get 10 - 11/lts per 100km and a lot of that is in busy traffic and when im not in traffic im often stretching its legs. Overall i dont drive it that hard but i certainly dont putter around! Has your consumption been like this since you got the car? Might be worth putting it on a dyno and checking the a/f ratio's etc...

My R32 fuel light comes on soon after the needle passes E, its a small light same as the fuel pressure light you see on IGN-ON

It changes from orange to red

I don't understand? are you saying it comes on orange when you are low, and if it gets lower then it goes red? i've only ever seen mine as an orange light.... But i have never let my fuel tank get really really low.
