I had an argument with Merc early last year which almost wrote my gen 1 off (mainly cosmetic). When I got it back from the insurance company the fuel gauge underead by 1/4 tank!
I questioned this with them and they said they would take it back for a few weeks to diagnose and fix it. I could not afford not to be mobile for that time.
I believed it was the fuel sender & float in the tank and they agreed to send me a replacement.
After I received and fitted it - the fault was still there! I therefore decided to live with it.
Although now a year down the road it's really starting to frustrate me. Do you think it's the clocks / gauge? I'd rather not change them due to the mileage record etc... And/or can you able to calibrate / adjust the gauge needle reading?
Any advice / comments will be appreciated...
