Hi RedCat7 i generally find that I get more success when filling the 7 up if I use 1/2 a squeeze on the pump handle so that is not at full flow, I also don't insert the nozzle all the way in, I pop it just into the filler and angle it down, I then kneel or squat down behind the 7 whilst keeping a beady eye on filling it up until it's full to the brim. My ggage is wildly inaccurate as SM25T and Stu Innes can attest to from our recent Euro trip, the gauge on my Sigma engined SV starts to fall slowly, until it hits 1/2 way then rapidly falls to 1/4, slows down and between a 1/4 and the red and then falls very very slowly, whereas SM25T and Stu's gauges, fell inline with mine to 1/2 a tank and then kept going at the same pace. We recon the sender is the issue, but I think I chickened out @ 220 miles with the needle in the red, before filling up and I only manage to get 37l into my SV sized tank (que the calls that I wasn't trying hard enough) I think it's a case of TADShttp://www.lotus7.club/sites/all/libraries/ckeditor/plugins/smiley/images/whatchutalkingabout_smile.png Mike
