Low Fuel Warning Light. was created by wanderinstar
I was running low on fuel the other week. But thought I will be ok as the fuel warningg light has not come on yet. It never did and I ran out of fuel. Question is do all Jimny's have these (2002) and if so are they a problem?

Mine came on a week ago, still traveled a further 60km before filling up (filled up 39.5L :unsure:), but mine is an 07 model. I dont remember my 01 having a fuel warning light tho.

Not on UK models until at least 05 (I have an 05 plate within a warning lamp)

Suzuki have this system where, when the fuel is low, the engine switches off on its own for safety. This can only be reset by putting fuel in it ;)

That is a good system. I wonder if other manufacturers will be doing the same. Do they also sell an accessory that holds a small amount of fuel. That really would sell like hot cakes. Mind you I have heard on ebay of them selling an ever full fuel tank. It never runs out. Bit expensive though.
