Runing out of Petrol!

(1/3) > >>

Jonny Boaterboy:
It tells me in the hand book under no circumstances let my 1994 V8 3,9 engine run out of fuel...... Why? If I run out of fuel can I not just put in my spear 5 litres of fuel and turn the key and wait untill some fuel reaches the engine and fires and drive off?

Thanks Jonny (with a full tank!)

Xtremeteam:
it has something to do with the cats i think,run the V890 dry about 3 times in the last fortnight & never had any probs,

James.Harwood:
This is a mistake in the hand book, it should read 'Always plan your route by known petrol stations at regular intervals'

H:
mines run dry of both fuels before now, because of the angle I was parked it took the whole 5 litres in my spare can just to get enough pressure to get some up to the engine. but shes shown no side effects but then again I dont have a cat. 92 3.9 efi
