What did you do with your Grenadier today?

What’s going on here then. Upon filling up the tank from just under half to full, the fuel gauge stays at below half. After a 17 mile journey the Grenadier is left overnight. The next day the gauge moves to 3/4 tank and tells me I’ve got 75 miles range left. Today still with a full tank it’s telling me I have less than 75 miles range left and an orange warning to refuel soon

Hi Logsplitter,

Did you fill the main tank from your auxiliary tank, because if you did the fuel level system does not change anything besides the gauge if your vehicle is running when you do the transfer, I transfer my fuel from the auxiliary tank to the main tank when my Ineos is switched off, I wired the auxiliary tank gauge and transfer pump to the overhead switched wiring behind the drivers side kick plate, and if you do that it is no different than filling at a service station according to the fuel level system, remember vehicle switched off.

I like this idea, Steve.
How do you prevent the pump from running dry and burning out? has it got an auto shutoff? Or an Alarm?
Thanks

I fill my tank from my LRA tank while I am driving, and the gauge reflect it filling. Manufactured Apr-2024. I expect this is different versions of the software. Somewhat untrustworthy.
 
Thoughts? They have a minor sale today.
I was away today. I have been very happy with them. Well worth the money which is cheaper than the competition. Thick piece of steel and slides nice on rocks.
 
If you make them light up, and a “no smoking” and “fasten seatbelt” like aircraft have, I’m in. :-)
i did think about the lighting up thing.... but too much trouble
I did however make the letters raised and coloured white in the hope that they would catch enough ambient light to be readable.
Or glow in the dark......

I filled from a petrol station and haven't used the auxiliary tank for a couple of weeks. When I do use the auxiliary tank it has auto shut off.
