This seems like a relevant thread to post this, but I was filling up my Evo yesterday, and the stupid pump auto lock wasn't working right and I wasn't paying attention, it started overflowing all over the place, and now my Evo smells like gas...

 

wash the car.

 

I have an Evo IX and I believe it to be a 14 gallon tank.
Although I once filled up with 14.1 gallons.....granted the car nearly stalled as it bucked its way down the street into the gas station, lol.

 

Because manufacturers have to protect their cars from female drivers.

 

I never could pump more than 12 gallon on my IX ..even when the light turn on.

 

yeah, the most i ever put in was 11.5. i figure the tank is 12gal

 

I put 12-12.5gallons in almost every time with in 20-30 miles from when the light comes on, on my IX

 

its a 14 gallon tank. Light leaves you with about 2-3 gallons left

 

It's a 14 gallon tank people. Here is the full IX specification list from Mitsubishi's website before they replaced it with the X's stuff. I've also put in 13.7 gallons before. No doubt our cars are conservative as hell in terms of fuel remaining when the light comes on though. I know from experience I could easily do another 40 miles when the light comes on, but I still sweat ***** after 20 miles or so.

 

EVO's in other markets had a 12 gallon tank. all USDM EVO's have 14 gallon tank.
