I am so confused right now so please someone shed some light on this .. I always top up £5-£10 as I do not drive much and the petrol gauge is always moving up a lot when I refill the petrol.. The problem I had today is that I tried to waste as much as petrol as I could so that the second the yellow light comes on notifying me to refill, I will refill and then calculate how many miles I get per gallon. So I was on my way to McDonald and the yellow light came on.. I then drove straight to the petrol station.. ( This journey from McDonald to petrol station was around 1.5 miles) I topped up £5 as I knew it was a gallon.. I started the car again and the petrol gauge needle didn't even move a tiny bit? the yellow light also stayed on? I thought okay wth is going on!? So I went to another petrol station and spent another £5 on petrol and still the needle hasn't moved up the slightest and neither the yellow light went of.. I am so confused now as my fuel gauge reads as if I have barely any petrol left yet I know I have £10's of petrol left in the car.. Someone also to mention is that when the ignition is on .. I hear 3 beeps and they go off again.. turn the engine on and they do not come again.. Turn the ignition of and on again they would come again.. I am so confused! Usually when I fill the tank up with £5's worth of petrol or even £10's worth of petrol the needle would go up at least 2 notches but today not even the slightest Really worried :/
