Doh,
I have another irritating problem with my punto.
I've got an elx 1.2 V reg, its done 27000 miles and has a full service history. I've recently noticed that the fuel gauge has stopped working, its permanently stuck at halfway.
I done 90 miles and noticed no difference on needle, putting £10 of unleaded didn't make a diff.
Anyone else had this problem and how did they fix it. I've looked in my Haynes manual and all I can think of is replacing/cleaning the fuel pump and fuel gauge sender unit, but I'm not sure if that would do the trick. Any help much appreciated.
I'm no mechanic, but I've done a few bits on the car - would replacing the sender unit be something an amateur can do? Any idea how much a garage would charge to fix it?
thanks in advance
Dan
