Fuel tank is currently 7/8 Full. No air bubles anywhere, nor any fuel leaks.

Indeed, my problem first occured on a fuel tank quite empty (1/4 full).

I will let the current tank lower again and see what happens.


By the way, where is the K40 located? Is it underneath the main fuse box, near the driver's side fender?

Thanks,
