Just purchased 1983 T25 1.9 watercooled and alls fine except for the red light on the fuel gauge flashes intermittantly and the needle flies to full for a few minutes then goes back to normal. It doesn't seem to affect the van's performance, but nonetheless its got me n my wife a tad worried! Both the water thing behind the number plate and the expansion tank are full enough, and the hoses that I can see seem to be fine.....Does it sound like a major problem?

Sounds like a dodgy sensor.
It's in the expansion tank....
But be carefull just in case it's not..........
lhd......

Cheers lhd...i'm very new to the world of the VW, but am keen to get to grips with how everything works and have a haynes manual in the post.....
