    Hello, thanks for the welcome Cisco.

    Have a 2003 disco td5 diesel which has had the standard fuel tank (95 ltrs) changed to a long range of 145 ltrs.Would this be correct?

    I emptied the tank and did a complete refill $$$$$$$$$$ after which the fuel guage remained on full. I was told by a mechanic that the "measurer" might release when I filled it to the top again. Nope, that didn't work.
    Another mechanic advised I could access the Sensor located on top of the fuel pump, by removing the rear carpet, remove a small plate and Bingo.
    Sadly I don't know what to do next as the mechanical lobe of the brain couldn't be found when my lobotomy took place.

    Any help would be much appreciated'

    Anyone with ideas about the fuel tank capacity?

    Manufacturer details may help

    If you provide some photos and /or manufacturer details, this will assist in the identification. There are several different units out there, and it also depends on whether it has aux tanks.
