On both of my S2K's no bars left and the pump icon lit generally meant I had 2.5-2.7 gals left in the tank (I can only put in around 10.3-6 gals) ., meaning 50-60 miles, your actual mileage may vary

this post crops up about monthly so if you're really curious do a search and average 2000 or so responses to get a true fleet average.

You have 46 miles after the last bar goes out until you run out of gas. (Highway/city driving)

And don't ask me how I know this

smurf2k

well its pretty easy to (roughly) measure


fill your car when you the light comes on

listed capacity - fill = reserve

for me thats OVER 2 gallons left which gives me 60 miles but i take er no more than 30 miles over the light

yyyiiikes

Thanks for all the input.

I keep track of the mileage after each fill up. Right now, I'm sitting at 282 miles... I'm going to make a gas run later tonight and see how close I was.

have you gotten your CDV removed? people in the central texas forum are trying to get a garage day going

Got all scared first time this happened to me and I was out in the middle of nowhere at night...

Now it doesn't even freak me out... Last night, had approx. 3 gallons (tank is 14.5 yes?) when the last bar went out.

25 miles for sure.
50 probably.
75 unlikely.

I went like 25 miles or so when last bar went out before I chickened out and put some gas in it.

Just don't make it a habit.
