Hi just a quick one got a 97 mav 2.7td 7 seater does anybody know how much diesel is left once the fuel light comes on ,had to pick my son up at stupid o clock and light came on got home ok but just be nice to know thanks.

Someone will have the answer for you. A full tank is around 80l

its ABOUT 15 miles driving nice and steady, but everyone's will be different. I know when that lights on, its low.

 

[gibby]

cheers for that dont really let it get that low as a rule but good to know thanks...:thumbs

Is that from experience Clivvy?

Just ask as the Trol is 15 litres left when the light goes on which can easily get you 70+ miles with a not overly heavy foot... but that is on a 95 litre tank of course

I have on several occasions done 30 miles in mine when the light came on.

Often you find it will come on 8 miles or so from home, and the next morning it does not come back on for 4 or 5 miles.

thats what mine did as i say came on but got me home then never came on the day after ....

I know that in my Patrol I have done about 30 miles after light has stayed on but too scared to do any more.

if it is working it will come on when you first turn on the ignition, Rick

yup, but this was in my old Mav. In my Terrano, 03 plate, I got a bit more. When I first bought it the light was on, and I got approx. 10 miles before the needle was quite literally dead flat - so not a risk I try to take. In the Mav I got 15 miles from light on to needle flat - I never let it actually run out. Could be you can get more, but when that needle hit flat that's close enough for me.
