Gas tank

[mattyjay]

Hi all

Today I found out the hard way my fuel gauge/sensor has broken.

How do I fix this, really desperate for some help!

Thanks

Do you have a known good battery? A dead battery will throw off the gas gauge.

That's a good shout, I better give that a charge first. If it's not, what else would you suggest?

If the scooter sat around unused for a while, the sensor could just be stuck. You can remove it and use PB blaster to lube it, or go fishing for the float with a bent clothes hanger. Sometimes just shaking the scooter or going over a rough bump helps.

Now I feel silly, had a good look with a torch, and saw the sensor floating freely 

Well I've ordered a new one and will fit that when it arrives!
