Default Fuel capacity for fourth gen?

Just a really basic question, trying to figure out gas milaege with the new H22. I saw it once as 17 gal., but i didnt know if that was totally accurate. That would mean I was gettin like 17 mpg. Doesnt sound right, or does it? hmmmm. Anyway, Im getting around 340 on a tank, 380 if i ***** foot it the whole time. thx in adv.

well here what you can do..
fill in the gas right now, reset your trip meter.
next time you refil, mark down how many gallon you pump in til your
car is full, take the number in the trip meter and / from gallon of gas you fill in.

mileage/gallon of gas =mpeg(sp)

Hello, the 4th gen tank is indeed 17.0gal.

5th gen tanks are a LIL different in design but I assume they're 17gal too.
