fill it before the rd light comes on or keep a can of fuel in the bck not problem.EVER!Newbie idiots question
When the red light comes on the fuel gauge... how far have you got before you need to fill..
Sorry Ive had the truck just over a month and have only filled up once before...
I feel 40 miles is the limit for my TD5 disco - (my light is orange?)
After that the needle drops below the lowest graduation and I expect it to stall
When I ran out of fuel last year, I discovered my battery wasn't up to the job of re-priming the system - what a pallaver!
So, if you plan to run out, I'd check your battery too

I got 29 miles on the light (1997 v8), was on the motorway - got to a service station at about 20 miles but couldn't bring myself to pay their price so winged it, and got away with it. It's great, adds a sense of adventure to a boring motorway journey! Must carry a spare can in the boot!
By the way, get a v8 and you'll be filling up much more than once a month and soon get a feel for how far you can get
