how big is Evo X's reserve tank?
once the gas meter starts blinking, how much more gallons do we have left?
|
I believe it's around 2.0 gallons. At least, that's what I experienced in my car. If I would hit the gas station shortly after the light went on, I would be able to put in 12.5 gallons into the 14.5 gallon tank.
|
I remember filling up 12.7 gallons right as soon as the gas light came on, so as atombomb said, it's probably close to 1.8 - 2 gallons.

so we can go approx. 35miles when the gas light first comes on?
|
so consensus is 12.5 gallons used when the light starts to flash. this is so depressing realizing that i've only had 220 miles on that tank, so that comes out to 17.6 mpg. come on, that's in the full size pickup territories. just venting, no need to start another poor gas mileage thread.

You can potentially drive farther but if you fill up regularly and stop trying to squeeze every penny out you're gonna treat your fuel pump better
|
just get gas as soon as possible. not fun running out of gas on your evo guys, trust me!

|
I get 150 miles out of that 12.5 gallons. Be happy if you get more than that.

Thirding this. Every time I've hit the station shortly after it's been in the range of 12.4-12.6 gallons.

Evo's Gas tank is comprised of a high quality shot glass and the reserve tank is a thimble
|
I take back what I said yesterday. On the way home from work yesterday, I had my gas light come on, so I immediately stopped and filled up.
11.74 gallons put in, leaving with 3.76 gallons, or in my case, about 40 miles lol. I got 209 miles out of that which = 17.8mpg |
