So, suddenly my fuel gauge went to E with the fuel warning light on.

I just filled up yesterday.

Its now fine though. Do i, pull the dash out and clean the contacts? Or is it my fuel level sender dying?

Fuel warning light is a separate sender to the one for the guage, it's a switch that's attached near the bottom of the tank, it may have been an issue with the wiring?

My R34 did that occasionally too. Ignored it.

damn I nearly booked a couple trips after looking at that.

if tokyo was on it I think I would have caved in.

instead cashed some points with Qantas for some EU flight...Honeymoon come at me,

ridiculous lol

Looks like I might be going to honolulu with a mate after showing him this lol

haha... enjoy!

yeah japan is absent from the list this time, sadly!

personally might try to jump on cheap sydney flights for kicks :S

Tried to book for late in the year, would be like ~$600 each including baggage return lol site has completely shit itself though and can't get through anything his trying to call them now, I gave up over the web.

that's the issue,

because, after a corner, i saw my fuel gauge decrease from F to E. then the light came on. So i suspect, behind dash issue instead? or do i wanna check the wires coming out of the fuel tank hole in the boot?

Fuel sender brah...it'll be dislodged in the fuel tank.

    • Um. No. Since Matt introduced the TIM it has become a lot easier to deal with the consequences of changing K for AFM and injector swaps. Then, tuning is a f**king doddle. No-one needs to know or care how many grams of air are flowing or any other bullshit. Need more fuel in a cell? Add more fuel. Need more timing in a cell. Add more timing. Need to adjust any of the other tables for warm up and so on? No harder than anything else. Sure - it's not an ECU system for starting from scratch on an arbitrary engine. But then.....it was never supposed to be, not recommended for, and almost never used that way. So.... On your engine, in particular, Nistune/Nissan OEM is about as sophisticated and difficult as banging 2 rocks together. Those ECUs are primitive and simple. There is nothing difficult there. I learnt Nistune from scratch, created new maps with extended axes, interpolated/extrapolated the original maps onto them and tuned my RB20 (basically the same ECU as your 26 ECU) all by myself, more than 20 years ago. And that was long before even TIM.
    • Set of knee pads for a R34. Will fit every model I think. Comes with everything except the rubber covers for the bolt holes. Still in great condition. You will need to drill holes to mount these or use double sided tape. I can do free shipping and will be shipping from the Netherlands with tracking.
    • Nistune needs something like an entire excel spreadsheet in which you build an abstraction layer that converts everything from real units you can actually measure into all of the various tables. The number of unexpected dependencies hiding in how the Nissan ECUs do math is a pretty impressive optimization trick for 8-bit MCUs but good god is it awful to actually work with in practice.
