approximately 2 gallons left in the tank. Beyond my control late last nite, I made it home with needle at a perfect 0 degrees on the "E," (or perfectly horizontal). Filled up this morning and poured in 23.3 gallons. Re-read the '01 brochure and it said the tank holds 25 gallons.....

 

FYI

The guages are not all the same and the in tank fuel pump is cooled by the gas around it so it is a bad idea for a number of reasons to "push" it unless you are forced to...

When mine shows E it will only take 21-22 gallons

When mine hits E, I can only get 21.5 or so in. I always stop pumping when the nozzle clicks off. I could maybe get another gallon or so if I didn't. Over-filling is bad. I can't remember why though.

 

gasoline expands. thats why they tell you to open the fuel cap slowly

 

Hold the button near the Odometer, and throw your key to on, then let go, it will run a test, and show you how many gallons in the tank.

 

I filled mine up with 25.2 one time

 

Cool!

 

Ya helped me out on the Glaze/Wax, so its the least I can do.

 

Mine freaks me out..when I fill it....the needle takes forever to move from empty to fulll.

 

That's because you drive so fast, it takes time for all the instruments to start working in real time again.

 

twisted, r u leaving the truck running while its fueling? if so, that is why it takes a while to reach the full mark. if you shut it off, and fuel it, then turn the key on, it should shoot up to full in a matter of a second or two. the old cars just to used to go up while running and fueling at the same time, not the newer cars, they want people to get into the habit of turning car (or truck in this case) off when going to get gas.

About 21-22 on my '99 L.

E on your fuel tank means you have...



About six 1/4 mile runs left and there better be gas close by

 

10 bucks at a time is all mine see's,whats a gallon of gas weigh something around 8lbs ???

 

and your just burning up gas hauling that wieght around....25 gallons X 8lbs.=200 lbs....10 dollars for me too
