Anyone know really how much gas you have when the GAS light comes on?
Re: Anyone know really how much gas you have when the GAS light comes on?
Well, that depaends on your MODS, your MPG and when you tripped the sensor. I've driven 45 miles with the needle WAY under E and still did not run out of gas. So...

My car seems to lose some power after the gas light turns on, like I'm running on fumes or something. I usually don't wait to long to fill up after that, cause it sucks driving and feeling underpowered. Anyone else get the same effect?

actually you're right about not letting the tank go almost dry...but it's not becuase of "dirt" it's becuase the fuel actually acts to cool off the fuel pump...and when you run the tank low...the fuel doesn't cool off the fuel pump as well.

Not too much
I dont know about you guys, but my experience so far on a 2K1 max is as SOON as the light turns on, you have about 7 miles left in the tank. The other day, i practically ran out of gas, feeling the gas losing it on the freeway, it scared the **** out of me. My civic would go below low and still give a clean 40-50 miles of distance.
I filled up this morning at 15.8 gallons, and light had barely turned on, I dont know what the tank holds, but it seems pretty close to empty to me. From now on, quarter tank left and I refuel.
