Is it just a case of clean the connections under the rear bench?

I know that when dave..h's 5 gets low on petrol, the gauge its self jumps all over the place, thats his message to get fuel quick.

would be good to know the reason behind this :)

Yep mine does this after it gets down to about halfway even though I know there is fuel in the car.

Resistance high spot on the tank sender contacts. Nothing that 5 minutes with a fibreglass pen can't sort.
