Ouchie!!

Stated capicity on my 92 Accord (donating to charity) is 17.1 galons. I've been able to get about 14 galons in there myself.

Damn Canadians.

Yeah us and the REST OF THE WORLD who use the metric system
"The British system, commonly used in the United States, was adopted from the British. The units of measure—the foot, the pound, and the second—are the basis for the system that scientists call the foot, pound, and second (FPS) system of measurement.

In the FPS system the basic unit for each fundamental quantity is as follows:

Foot for length (ft).
Pound for mass (lb).
Second for time (s).
Although this system is still readily used by United States citizens, a switch to a metric system is inevitable. Most of the rest of the world uses metric systems and our country has been slowly incorporating the metric system into the public."

the british and the americans think they are better then everyone..

yeah tank is 15.9 on my old lude I didnt have a light and knew the car pretty well so I would let it go down a little far sometimes. Ive filled 15.7 once and that was filling the entire neck I believe.

with the new lude it has a light and even if I drive with it on for a while I never seem to fill more then 14.4 so I think I am just going to ignore it from now on.

you can run out of "fuel bars" on the gauge and still drive for quite some time.

I drive with 0 bars all the time. It's lighter that way and as such, faster.

Or maybe it's just because i'm broke
