my fuel guage stopped working a few weeks ago it was showing red when it had plenty of fuel in. then yesterday i raced the engine from cold and the guage started working, but not showing the correct amount of fuel, i ended up running it completly dry and coasting to the petrol station lol. now it seems to not like me putting anymore than £20 in. the nozzel keeps clicking and disabling the trigger. need help as its driving me mad and making me want to scrap the thing.

Try changing the fuel level sensor underneath the seat, and check that the cables doesnt shortcircuit with other stuff

- You might want to try to check the stock cables with a voltmeter, or replace the cables before buying a new sensor.
