I ran my Lib down to fumes once, to the point where the EVIC said I had 0.0 miles to go before empty and the gas gauge was fully to the left - and then I drove it some more after that. When I got to the gas station to fill it up, it only took about 16.8 gallons and I know I have an 18.5 gallon tank. I know about the "reserve" and all, but 2 gallons? I guess I'm wondering if my fuel gauge is messed up or if something needs to be calibrated. Thanks for any opinions or knowledge on this one!
Not sure if something is wrong since I don't have an Evic. Could be a saftey barrier for people who do run it down to "0.0" miles. How much do you usually put in when you fill up? How long do you fill up after the low fuel light comes on?
On a side note, my low fuel light came on when I was dropping my girlfriend off at her college (she scratched her eye with her contact and couldn't drive). Well late that day we went to Beverly Hills and came back to downtown LA. When I finally filled up I put 20.8 gallons in my 20.5 gallon gas tank costing me $70. Needless to say, close call.
