Went to use the 3.2 this afternoon: turning over but won't fire.
Posting in gen chat, as I think it's human error: no petrol!!
Range indicates 12 miles, but reckon it's lying!

Tut tut James, Workman, Tools, Always, His, A, Blames, Bad. Re-arrange this well known phrase to reveal the cause! ;D ;D ;D ;) :y

what tools am I blaming? I think you'll see my first post openly held up hands to 'human error'.... ;)
I have been looking at the red light for a while thinking 'must get some'... But it wasnt flashing yet!
Maybe the 2 mile walk with a jerry can will teach me to fill up sooner!!!!

In the Subject you quote, 'Stupid Omega!' is being tight the car's fault...... :y :y :y

Was it lack of petrol or was it something far worse than that turned it into a non starter ??? ???

Another tight bugger, I hate to get less that half full, swmbo goes to the red...... :D :D :D
-
had fuel light on my 2.2 for past month, really should put some in and shut up that fuel light.
Or shall I remove the bulb ::)

The Omega goes to 1/4 - red but I'll run the Astra to 470 miles on the tank which will take it to the wrong side of the red sometimes ................. ::) ::) ::) but then they both get topped right up.

Why not force start on LPG and drive to station? ::)
-
One thing I need to take note with the 3.2, is when that fuel light on it really does need fuel ;D
-
Does that mean that 2.5s are more intelligent? Mine did 10 miles on petrol with Zero Range last week before I bottled it and put a squirt in ;D

You guessed it... none of that in tank either ;D

Nah, you just got lucky :D ;D

My MV6 has done 18m down the M40 after it started reading 0m range ::)
Bloody thing still only took 73l (my record)... ...another 10m in that ;D
-
I certainly wouldn't be trusting the "Range" display if it'd been running on LPG. That can throw it wildly out. ;)

Had zero range on either fuel today , Mrs was cacking herself. Filled up the gas and it took 69 litres, guess there was 3-4 left in it!
