Low fuel light was on for awhile and we were almost to a station when his 1098 died. Tried to start it and no go. Out of gas. Watched my friend push his 1098 for about a mile to the station. Only got 13.5 Litres into the tank.

Isnt it a 15.5L tank??? I was pretty surprised. No I didnt check before he filled it if it was actually empty. He did say he tried to start it 3 times. Flashed after a couple seconds when filled...

Why only 13.5 L???

Fuel pickup too high???

Any guesses???

Wait I just thought of something. Could the tank be swelling inside?

It's not at all atypical that the pump can't get the last couple of liters out of the tank... wouldn't sweat it at all
