Just picked up a 94 3 dr blue 19 16v!! full leather [mint as well!] momo sterring wheel, 17" 5 spokes, 11 month MOT, stainless exhaust, piper x filter, and 100k miles!!! very happy with it but as a previous cabby driver i haven't had the joys of the trip computer, what i need need to know is where's the bloody fuel gauge is!!!! probably obvious but haven't worked it out, and no hand book!!! will post pics of crashed cabby and new hatch this weekend!!

lol fuel gauge is on the digi part (well duh)

Just out of interest is the digi part flashing?

if so u need to reset it by turning the trip knob on the speedo to the right with the ignition in the on posistion

this is my dash

showing the fuel gauge

it usually goes to the fuel gauge by default

if not then press the button on the wiper stalk until it appears Wink

sorted many thanks i assume the g idicates gallons!
why the cab didn't get the trip computers i don't know! also this cars got the bosch ABS, makes a big difference! i could tell i'm really going to start to appreciate the valvers handling with a roof!! [although a few of you will claim you don;t appreciate it till you drive a ph1!!!!]

i find the ph1 does handle a bit better than the ph2 but its only on fast twisty bits you really notice the difference between the two
