My FC getting worse.......help!!

<< < (69/144) > >>

Novellus Legends:
OK a bit misleading on the comment on that picture..
of coz , No doubt of coz i reset my meter to 0 after pumped to brim...
u can judge urself the needle at 80km..it actually dipped a bit. At 0, the needle is way on top...

clarence:
When you mentioned that you pumped to the brim, was it to the extend that the petrol almost flowed out?

Or did you stop the momment the fuel noozle auto cut off?

psyched:
