So I did search on this but did not find in answer, so what the heck, thought I'd ask...
I am starting to use that 1973 1.7 car that I bought on Bring a Trailer and so far so good. My gas gauge is showing half a tank but the orange light next to the pointer remains illuminated. I'm assuming this is my low fuel warning light after checking the diagrams but would like to doublecheck. Thanks for all of the help.  |

yes low fuel warning, looking at that gauge, you might want to remove the float in the tank, take off the cylinder cover and clean the slider
