Default What size is the gas tank on a 92 CX?

Ive been trying to see how many miles per gallon im getting. My gas needle has been pegged at E twice with no gas light ever coming on. Right now im at 354 miles to this tank of gas for both city and highway, the needle is past the redline on E and no gas light has came on.

How many gallons does my tank hold?

Nah, it's gotta be 11.1 gallons because I filled up my 92 CX tank last night with 10.4 gallons of gas (damn H22 sucks down more gas than a 454 Suburban).

Yeah, I felt like I could drive to Cali on one tank with my old d15, now it feels like I'm stopping at every gas station with the B18, price you pay for power I guess.

Honda model brochure that year lists CX as 10.0 gallon gas capacity.

I have also filled with slightly more than 10 gallons, but I don't think Honda accounted for the filler tube or the fuel injection system (the filter actually holds quite a bit of fuel).

I can post the brochure, if you like.

Edmunds lists the capacity as 11.9. Never let mine get that low over the last ten years.

Sure did - the spec sheet is fascinating!

10.0 tank on CX/VX
11.9 tank on DX/Si and all 4-door models

This may also contribute to the weight difference between the CX/VX and the DX
