empty gas tank light

just for shits and giggles, how many miles can i drive once the empty gas tank light goes on in my gs?

Well for shits and giggles, I get about 370 before my gas light comes on in my ES.

hahaha.

not for sure...ive always wanted to know how far i could drive on "empty'...ive said i was gonna run her dry a few times but ive never done it

I have like 325 miles right now on the trip and my light just came on. I have ran it almost to suttin down like 2 times. :oops: I can't tell you exactly how far I drove on the light but probably about 20 miles or so. Probably a little more because usually my light goes on and off a couple of times before it actually stays on. The last time I ran it down to fumes, I studdered like 2 or 3 times.

depending if its summer or winter
in summer i can do bout 375
winter 325 pushin it

summer u get more miles because they use more ethyl
winter they use more oxygen so yur car runs better in the cold

i read u can go about 40 miles on fumes, but i think they meant to say u can run 40 miles once the gas lights comes on...i danno. i've gone about 20 miles after the gas light comes on.

come to think of it, ive never seen the "Gas Light" whenever it gets to empty i fill her up. How long after empty does the light come on?

Same here...every since i ran out of gas in the middle of the highway with me last car..i've learned my lesson!!!

mine comes on when i have a quarter of a tank left and i am oficially out of gas when the needle is on E. but then i tinkered with my guage for a while to do so

I finally got down to about 350 miles on my trip before my first studder. If that means anything. So I filled up at 350 or so. So by my calculations that atleats 25 more miles so probably a little more than a gallon left in the tank?

wow.... you guys get shitty mileage

my turbo gets 380miles before the light begins a low glow

but, the light comes on when you have Approx 2.5 gallons Rmaining

sooooooo

figuring you get ~20mpg
figure 50 miles from first glow

yeah, i get about 350 miles to the tank, and almost every weekend i take my car out and drive it like a nascar for a good 50 miles, so my mpg goes way down.

Huh, I never know that. That explains a lot.... :roll:
I get shitty mileage this time a year, I figured it was just the cold block working overtime or some shit.

my car only gets about 280 with a full tank any one know why
