Default Does the NSX have a dummy light?

Just wondering if the NSX's have a dummy light? I've gotten close to E but never deep into it. is there a light that comes on? Also, how far can you drive on E before it gets dangerous?

There are lots of things that can be called "dummy lights". But it sounds like you're referring specifically to a low fuel warning light.

You see the top of this forum, there is a topic called NSX FAQ (answers to Frequently Asked Questions)? Go to that topic, and then to the NSX FAQ. Click on "Technical Info", and then click on "Fuel Capacity". You will find the answers to your questions.

Of course I could stay on the prime all day, but I'm trying to get something going on in here. That is my legit question. I've never seen that light come on, maybe mine is broken.

And maybe it's not. You would find the exact answer if you just followed my instructions. It would take you a total of 30 seconds, maybe a minute if you type slow or you're on a dial-up line. Less time than it took you to write your post. Just try it!

I love how you've got someone quoted in your sig who was talking about you.

Why that's funny to me I do not know.

Easily amused perhaps?

How much fuel do you put in it when you fill up? If you put 16 gallons or more and the light never came on, it might be broken. If you put less than about 16 gallons, you need to burn more fuel before the light will come on.

See what happens when you spend thirty seconds going to a website? You can learn something!

Oh boy - Do I feel like a dummy! What I wrote was just my observations on my car. I somehow skipped over your post and I had no idea the FAQ reported the exact same thing.

Nice try, but we know you, ojas. You're probably as far from a dummy as anyone here.

Yeah, there's a reason ojas' point total is the way it is. And a reason why mine is....oh, nevermind. ak on the other hand, should probably be in the 70% range.
