    Fuel Light

    Anyone know how much fuel is in tank when the fuel light comes on?
    My light came on last night, (i had been meaning to fill it up) and rushed to a station to give it some juice. was worried it may run dry.

    supposedly 9 litres, however I've had it come on with all of my Legnums (4) at about 12-13 litres left.

    How much fuel did you actually put in to fill it up?

    Is it possible to get a more accurate/reliable fuel measuring system installed in cars?
    I'm not arguing...I'm just offering an endless series of contrary points of view.

    not really. the fuel light does seem to be consistant, but where the needle is can be irrelevant to how much fuel is actually in the car

    yeah that's what'd be cool to get going better that what it is now. Does anyone know of any cars that don't suffer from this though. R33's, accords do as well that I know of.
