how much gas
i was wondering how many gallons it takes you to fill up your car. i read in the manual it should take 13.2 gallons but today when i was almost empty i filled up. it only came out to only 9.6 gallons even after topping it off. maybe this is why i only get 200-220mpg
if i fill up as soon as the light first flickers on and then off again.....it'll take 10.5....
i've gone as far as filling 12.5 though.....close one, eh?
and did you mean 200-220 miles per tank?? if so, that's really low. i easily get 290+ per tank.

you mean miles per tank, not per gallon. and the correct answer is that the gauge is intentionally skewed so that it is more difficult for you to run out of gas. when your gas light indicator goes on, there is still plenty left...in 2nd gen integras it goes on with 2.4 gallons remaining, and i believe for the 3gens it's 2.2 gallons.
yeah i filled mine up to 9.5 gallons. what you can do is fill up your tank, reset your ODO TRIP meter...and when its time to fill it up...divide your MILES traveled on your ODO by the number of gallons you just filled. ex: i filled 9.5 gallons and went 245 miles. 245/9.5 = 25.7 mpg. that's pretty good i hope. if this isnt a right way of doing it, someone let me know.
i barely can make it go over 10 gallons... maybe its just the newer integs who knows....the reserve must be alot.. cuz i have drop about....30 minutes on the freeway on the light... during rush hour .. that was a scare of my life lOL

I usually get about 275-285 per tank and my average fillup is around 10-10.5 gallons. I've driven with the light on before and my record fillup is 11.8 gallons. Its really not good to run it that close because the you can pick up contaminates from the bottom of the gas tank. But...when ya gotta get where you're going and don't have time to stop...Waddya gonna do?
