Yes, the straight tube that goes in through the fuel pump housing contains a float for fuel level. This is a float within the tube.
On the left hand side of the tank is a second float which is more like a toilet cistern float valve, this is only for the low fuel warning light.

Replacement head coming arrived thanks to MJ
Silver with Black interior. All features as the '01, with the 'S' mode auto shifter. Dodgey rear tint (need to find a way to get rid of that).
Family:
2009 Volvo XC90 V8 R Design - has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!

Sold:
1997 Audi A4 - Hamilton's Club Sport, Achat Grey (will miss the old girl)
