i was just curious if anyone knows how far you can drive after the light comes on before your car dies out.

 

our tanks hold 14.5 gallons and im pretty sure it comes on after 12 gallons are used, thats how it seems for me.

 

light comes on at 12.5 gallons used. So you have 2 gallons left. Roughly 40-50 miles, depending on driving habbits.

 

You shouldnt run the car untill it dies out from no gas, that's not good for the car.

 

umm i tested many times, the light comes on when you have 2.5 gallons left...you can go like 35 - 40 more miles...i wouldn't recommend anything more than that ...i remember one time i stretched it....it won't allow me to rev more than 2.5K occasionally, and if i tried, it dropped all the way to 1K, and makes the car jerks like crazy...so yea...i learned my lesson. Take care of your tC bud, don't stretch the tank for more than 35 miles....

 

The "Look for gas, dummy!" light should come on with about 2 USABLE gallons left...

 

I've gone 80 miles after the light came on (my house to my dads house)...all highway miles cruising at about 70ish. My car only took 13.1 gallons at the pump...who knows?! - i DON'T top off though

 

why are you even doing that? i mean ive done it before.. but only because i had no gas money. and i didnt want my parents paying for it.

 

i went about 67 miles cuz i didnt feel like stopping for gas and wanted to get home. i know its not good, but its time saver.

 

I get gas when its convenient (price and location) unless its an emergency - that simple!
