I once managed about 12 miles til empty on a constant light. That light comes on when you have 1.5L of fuel left.

I have a pointy k3 and when the light comes on after around the 100 to 105 mile mark I can only get a tenner in it. Does this mean I should still have about 7 litres left? I thouht you could only get about 15 miles when the light comes on.

I get about 130 on my k3 beore the light comes on... Did 27 miles on the light last thursday as i am sure someone picked up the petrolstation and moved it a good 12miles along the A483.

And topped 30 miles with it on once heading along the m5/a30
