Hi all, another question/problem. A bit of back story first. I inherited a ford fiesta zetec Mk6 2007 which has been stood for a good 14 months if not longer. When I first acquired the car the fuel was on red and the light was on. She did start on the old fuel. I went to get about £5 worth of fuel so I could get the car home. On the way home (roughly 2miles) that £5 I put in did absolutely nothing to the petrol gage. Get her back and started it the next day and noticed the fuel light was off. Took her back and forth from the mot station (8miles) on that £5 without the light coming on. Took her just up the road about 1/2 mile and light came on again. I then took her to a petrol station (8miles away) to fill her up to about half a tank £25 worth. Ran her for about 20 or so miles and then put in another £29 to have her on full. I did 150 until it was roughly on the half a tank where I put in another £19 to fill her back up on full.

My question is does all those miles and prices roughly work out to be accurate? After filler her completely up again yesterday I did drive about 5 miles home on a full tank, started her up this morning and she was already down half a notch.

Every time over filled her up she has cut her self of with being able to fill to those prices with no problems and I could also hear a guzzling sound as the air was being pushed out the tank. I'm hoping it is reading right but I don't think it is.

If it isn't, how and what should I do? Where is the petrol gage sensor, how to clean it, how to tell it's broke etc etc

Thanks all!!
