I filled up at South Fork, CO yesterday on my trip from Lake City, CO to Tulsa. The low fuel light came on @ 642 miles and I arrived home with 714.3 miles on the GPS. I will see if 750 is in the cards today.

Except for going over La Veta Pass, you were downhill the whole way, plus you had a tailwind from the front that came through here yesterday. We're getting snow here now abouve 10,500 feet. It happens.

Actually the tail wind was not that noticeable when I went through and about half the trip was in a 20 MPH crosswind from the South. The down hill part is undeniable, still a hoot.

You must have been out in front of the tailwind. That front came through here around 1:15 yesterday. We are getting some serious rain this morning.

I filled in South Fork @ 7:15 AM, ran A/C from just north of Trinidad until home. Also dropped by Black Mesa in OK. Just filled at exactly 754.1 miles with 22.3 gallons.

22.3 gallons, wow, you were really running on fumes (and diesel doesn't emit much of those).

I think the fumes were gone also, the CRD would not restart at Walmart. I had to fill and prime.

Pushing her to the limit. Good job.

Silly question, but I though we only had a 20 gallon tank. Also, remember that your CP3 pump is lubricated and cooled by the fuel, so running the jeep that low on fuel probably isnt worth the risk IMO. Those are still incredible numbers though.

Yea, might be a pump's callibration is off a tad.

Actually my build sheet indicates a 21.5 gal fuel tank. I really filled the tank into the filler tube.

I've gotten 22.5 into the tank twice. At two different pumps. They hold a lot.

I have never let mine get that low before. When the lever clicks off though, it is full. I might be able to get another pint in, but if I do, it starts leaking out of the vent tube underneath. I hate that.

Way to go tulsa. I've gotten 600 on a tank but you are the King of sucking fumes. Does that make you a Huffer?

Need to get that fixed. If you slow fill and choose a pump where the fill tube is on the highh side of the jeep (fuel tank is slightly tipped so no air is left in top) you can get even more in.

I Wish we had 35 gallon tanks. The extra weight doesn't change economy much on a 4300lb jeep with 365lb ft tq.

Just got back from a trip from Tulsa to Roodhouse, IL and back. I drove first tank 704 miles before adding fuel. Looks like 32.2MPG on that tank. Last 200 miles I drove into strong front quartering wind and drove 75MPH on the turnpike. Total was 925 miles on 29.175gal, 31.7MPG
Woot Woot!
