Just fill it up 'til the pump shuts off, then push the odometer reset button and go until your pretty empty then fill up 'til the pump shuts off (if you want to be real **** about it then use the same pump). Then devide whatever your trip odometer says by the number of gallons that the pump says you put in (on the second fill-up). Got it?

the most i've ever put in my car was a little over $35.00 worth...

Zeus97MAX

I have put in around 33-35 dollars when I was close to being empty. Of course, it is all going to depend on the price of gas in each area, and what octane fuel you use.

25 bux usually fills up for me.....93 premium at 1.81/gallon

adithius

Well the tank is 18.5 gallons. When you are full, use your trip odometer and see how many miles you've gone divide by the number of gallons you filled up with.

Wills98MaxSE

not that I let my tank get that low, but $30-$35 seems about right to completely fill the max from E, esp w/ 93 going for about $2.09/gal here in metro Detroit

exit10

thanks alot i will try this when im empty. damn u all gave me some pretty good ideas, werd up..

Dubaimax

$1.2/gallon.... if i'm not rong, maxima has a fuel tank cap of 16.2 gallons...

Terran

iTrader: (6)

That's some cheap gas...you are wrong. The max's tank is 18.5 gallons. I've never put in more than 16 though.

Dubaimax

yeah, i live in Dubai... gas is cheap here...

Who cares how much $$ itakes to fill the tank?

Akumachan

iTrader: (12)

rediculous or not, im still dealing with it... it got as high as $2.67, but i always faithfully gave it premium...

illmortal

$28 on Plus (87octane)
Pretty soon I'm going to use the 93 octane when it finally drops to the $1.90 area, thinking of just making it simple by refueling to full when I hit half a tank instead of waitin till almost empty, maybe just maybe I'll some how save money.

We do.
One day I paid over 36$ for premium gas

Your gas mileage depends on your tires as well.If you got good tires and the psi is set right,you'll get close to 400 miles if not more.I got new tires and I get a little over 400 with still 2 1/2 gallons left.

$27.00 to fill up w/ 93. Our premium is only $1.85/gallon, and I get $.05 off when I use the gas card. I also never let it get below a 1/2 tank to get the most of my gas milage

illmortal

Yeah! that's what I was told. That the first half of your tank will have better milage than the second half! So I'm going to start fillin up everytime I hit the half way mark.

willis

iTrader: (2)

does anyone want to explain how that could be possible to me?

magneto112

I dont know but I notice with my car that my gas needle drops pretty rapidly after that half way mark.

gto400no1

iTrader: (5)

lol we dont get better gas millage, it just isnt a real accurate needle, its all the same. correct me if im wrong, but im almost positive thats why.

willis

iTrader: (2)

exactly.. the needle is not perfectly accurate. Gas is gas, there's no way the first half a tank burns any quicker than the second half a tank. If you really want to split hairs, your car gets lighter as you burn thru gas, so the second half of the gas tank should last longer... very very marginally longer..

again if i'm wrong, please correct me.. but the idea seems absurd

bigleman

iTrader: (4)

my first half always burns quicker than the second b/c i know i have gas.
its the second half a tank i strech out.
btw, how much gas is left when the light comes on, and what determinds when the light comes on?

Wisky97SE

iTrader: (1)

If you put 14 gallons of gas in your car, the first 7 gallons should burn just as fast as the other 7 gallons, assuming your driving style is the same. Hell, if anything i'm a more calm driver when I have ~ 1/4 tank in the car.

$51.00 cad = $41.65 us for 63L of gas.

$31.00 to fill her up. $2.19 per Gal. I hate having a turbo (sike)

Put some premium gas in for the first time, omg shes a beast with it. Too bad I cant always afford premium.

illmortal

Yeah that's what I explained, that the first half of the tank of gas takes a good long while before it hits the half way mark, but then the 2nd half of the tank just doesn't last long what so ever.

illmortal

Omg... never let your empty light come on ><
Even on the manual it explains that... the reason is over time the gas tank will have build up and flakes and dirt and you dont want that going into your fuel injectors, you'd have to replace them if they're not pushing out enough fuel.
