[Dr Boost]

Does anyone know approximatly how much fuel is left in the tank when the fuel light comes on in an r33?

Try a search for "fuel AND light"

Should reveal all as this has been covered before...

u must be low on fuel and payday is a couple of days away ??

no im just never quite sure.

ive got 550kms off a tank before the light has come on before.

i wonder what you could get if you really stretched it?

I usually notice that when the fuel light starts to come on theres about 7-10 litres left in the tank.

Judged by filling up and the tank only requiring 55litres.

I've run my tank many many times to where the needle sits on the "middle" of the "E" which is approx 62-64L. The best was 622km to the middle of the "E" and when I filled up (might light had been on solid for a good 10km) I could only get 60L in it.

The GTT's reserve tank must be huge then, I can only get 48-50L when the light comes on which means a 15L reserve!!!

U seen the episode of seinfeld where kramer takes a saab for a test drive to see how far he can go with the fuel light on?

I say u do the same experiment and tell us all the results

heheh.. nice

when i drove to Sydney a few weeks ago i was getting 11.2ks per litre if thats any indication, that is just straight highway driving... usaualy 7.5-8.5ks/L around town

you could probably work it out from there.... youre consumption would be different tho depending on what mods have been done....

I am talking out of my arse here but, reserve tank? Is there a separate tank?

I too have noticed that there is about 15L left when the light comes on.

Best distance from a tank - just over 700kms -was shitting myself,

Worst - 196kms from 48L fill up. (that was on the drift/skid pan day in december)

for my r32 GTS25, its around the 10L mark as well.

Sorry, bad choice of words, there's just one tank, just got 15L left which is alot!
