So, suddenly my fuel gauge went to E with the fuel warning light on.

I just filled up yesterday.

Its now fine though. Do i, pull the dash out and clean the contacts? Or is it my fuel level sender dying?

Fuel warning light is a separate sender to the one for the guage, it's a switch that's attached near the bottom of the tank, it may have been an issue with the wiring?

My R34 did that occasionally too. Ignored it.

if tokyo was on it I think I would have caved in.

instead cashed some points with Qantas for some EU flight...Honeymoon come at me,

ridiculous lol

Looks like I might be going to honolulu with a mate after showing him this lol

that's the issue,

because, after a corner, i saw my fuel gauge decrease from F to E. then the light came on. So i suspect, behind dash issue instead? or do i wanna check the wires coming out of the fuel tank hole in the boot?

    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
