Ghostrider 3rd Gear December 28, 2007 Share December 28, 2007 Believe me....if you have a faulty fuel gauge...it helps. Donkey years back, my AE86 has a faulty fuel gauge...everytime you top up to full, it will show full for like 3 mins....then it falls to empty. I pump at BP (now SPC) in Woodlands...and zoom in....kenna stuck at the causeway...then when reach customs...its "empty" liao !! I show him my receipt and explain that the fuel gauge is faulty....and show him the receipt that shows the date, time and liters pumped. He accepted my explanation and wave me on. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jman888 Moderator December 28, 2007 Share December 28, 2007 i had a faulty fuel gauge too that always stay at empty. should quickly change to another dial (Jap to conti, or conti to jap) that show the opposit, then it will always show full the officer probably x-rayed you car and know you have a full tank.

Thefear Clutched December 28, 2007 Share December 28, 2007 Ya thats just u lucky got a lenient officer. My friend's gauge oso spoiled, but he pumped n showed receipt. Officer say no fine but ask him u turn to get it fixed b4 goin in. He claimed if my fren insists on goin in. He will have to make a trip to LTA with the customs ppl to comfirm the fuel gauge is really spoiled. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobrainer32007 Neutral Newbie December 28, 2007 Share December 28, 2007 alamak so big cc next time pump more $$$. but at least u averaged down and enjoyed ur trip B4 drove into M'sai, I top up $30 in Tampines, however, when I arrived at checkpoint, just below 1/2 tank. KNNBCCB,the custom stopped me. I had whole family in car. I showed my top up $30 petrol, but stupig idiots still don't give chance. Make my whole family waited & asked me how big cc is my car. KNNBCCB, Innocently & honestly I told him my is 2.4litre. I should have told the idiots it is only 1.6litre. I supposed bigger cc kenna more fine (Now high petrol price) Guess how much I kenna fined! $300 dollars on the spot! KNNBCCB, even I produced receipt of just top up $30 in tampines.............. Was determined not to let bl**dy idiot custom spoiled my driving trip, I paid fine $300, U-turn to top up full tank.... and just enjoyed my holidays , eat good food in M/sia & shopping.... Advise, bro, please make sure you hv at least 3/4 tank.............good luck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typhoonz 4th Gear December 28, 2007 Share December 28, 2007 (edited) Of course he enjoyed his trip... He paid $300, made a U turn, pumped more fuel, rejoin the queue at woodlands and into JB... After all these trouble, he definitely must enjoy... Edited December 28, 2007 by Typhoonz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boyboy 1st Gear December 28, 2007 Share December 28, 2007 if the top brass of ICA cannot take this as human feedback - that the fact that the average driver spends more time waiting at the sg checkpoints than the my checkpoints, and want to play legal games, then i would just like to say they are not fulfilling their duty in serving the true interests of the nation: the people like you and I. what makes u think they serve the interests of the common folk? in some ways, they do, by catching drug traffickers and illegal immigrants. but i don't think they serve the citizens by hampering them in their trips up north. i have much faith in the ABILITY and EFFICIENCY of the gahmen and its various depts, hence, if there is any inefficiency, it has to be intentional Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
