  • 16.122 Gallons?

    Well I searched but I couldnt find what the capacity of the fuel tank is. I filled up tonight after running the tank pretty low and the pump said 16.122 gallons, $56.

    I thought we had a 16 gallon tank, is that right?

          damn, I've allowed my "low fuel" light to come on twice, and each time when I filled up it only took 13.2 and 13.6 gallons.

            i came within .3 gallons of empty on my jimmy but never that close on my pontiac. it can cause problems, especially during a cold winter. plus the filler neck and fuel lines all hold fuel which bumps it up a little over just the tank, but still that is running it pretty low.

              One time I ran out of gas 5" before the pump. People looked at me funny because I had to push it forward to reach the pump. I was damn lucky and she just gave me that look. Yeah you know the one.

                      Actually the "er" spelling is typically used only in the USA. I guess if you don't use metric you wouldn't know how to spell the terms.

                              16.4 gallons on the GT Sedan according to this site: http://nctd.com/review-final.cfm?Veh...&ReviewID=1916

                              I would think the others are the same. I never let my low fuel light come on. Your fuel pump needs fuel to cool it.
