Fuel capacity.
driving from work my low fuel idiot light came on.
i stopped @ the nearest gas station to fill up.
it took 15.53 gallons before the pump stopped.
when i came home, i read the car manual and it indicates 18 gallon tank.
that means that when the light comes on, there are still 2.5 gallons of fuel left in the tank.
for me that would be around 75 miles.
would you want to drive 75 miles with the "tank empty light on"?
