Hey everyone! Hope things are going well for all of you.

My question is this. On the V8s Lotus disabled the filler cap on the passenger side of the car. when I try to fill up my car. My petrol needle only gots to 8/9ths of the tank. I can neverget it to register 1/1. I've filled the tank to the point where fuel over flowed. It still read 8/9ths. I don't think the last little bit of gas is getting into the passenger side tank. Although there is fuel in it. HELP!! This situation is driving me

From 98 my onwards you only have the one working petrol flap.

As for the guage, that's kinda what they do. It'll now rocket down to just over empty and hang around that mark for ages!

Thanks. I guess I need to deal with the needle phenomenon. That sucks.. Oh well.. Still love my car though.
