Fuel Gauge

I thought that there was some sort of limit switch on the float to activate the light. That may not be so because my light came on a while back with 2 bars of fuel remaining. It wouldn't fall below those two bars. I rode about 15 miles with the light on and put 4.7 gallons of fuel. Since then the fuel gauge has been working fine. The light and float may be independent of eachother.

That is exactly what happened to me on Friday. I filled up and added the MMO hope that fixes it.
