everytime the light comes on I push it to 40 miles, depending on how heavy my foot is. =) but then it take a little over 17 gallons. not bad...but i do wanna see what the limit is, I used to run out of gas in my Integra ALL the time.

Its a fact that we have 20 gallon tanks, it might be the fact that your shutter valve because of the fact that some of the gas tanks have that problem with filling up. Our gas tanks have two compartments and sometimes one side will fill up but not the other, which causes you to only fill up with 15 gallons or less. There's a bulletin about that somewhere. I had to get mine fixed because of that.

I usually never let my gas tank go lower than a 1/4, so not too sure how much gas is left after the light turns on.

fuel items is costly!trust me when i say your tank(no matter how clean

If I fill up right after the gas light comes on, I put in about 16 gallons. And the Nav screen will display ~60 miles to empty.
