Scotch booster down the hills eh. 
I’m not the only one then!
I spent the worst couple of hours I’ve ever had in a truck driving 'round leicester in rush hour, with the needle a fair bit lower than that, looking for a keyfuels - there should have been several but one had shut down, another’s hgv pumps were on the blink etc etc. I’d normally have put £20 worth in it off my own bank card and claimed it back but I hadn’t got it with me.
I was sweating, getting all fidgety and impatient, was practicly chewing the steering wheel but it just kept going!
Trouble is, I expected another to do the same and ran out waiting for a pump 
hope the tank was clean or else thats a lot of dirt getting sucked up. 
Why is that when we are running on vapour we always turn the radio off too - or is that just me?

How do you work that one out when the fuel pick-up is from the bottom of the tank to begin with?
Would not be the infamous DAF electrics giving you a false reading by anychance?
