Default What's the most you've put in your tank?

I know we've got like 32 gallon tanks but if by change my fuel light comes on (I try not to run it that low), the most I've put in t here is like 26.5 gallons.

I can't see there still being 5.5 more gallons in my tank. Do all H2's have a 32 gallon tank?


Thanks,

Mark

I have an SUT and not sure if it's any smaller or not, but I have never put more than about 25 gallons in mine and this is when the DIC say I have less than 10 miles left.

29.5 on my first trip to Moab in the middle of nowheresville, KS.

Ask Adam, I was on the phone with him sweating up a storm and cusing like a sailor. I knew I'd never see another station....

Default Re: What's the most you've put in your tank?

This has been addressed in the past. Yes it's a 32 gal tank. the low fuel light is VERY conservative. I've driven 50 highway miles past 0 miles left on the computer and I put 31 gallons in after that trip.

Once I get around 30 miles left, it changes to "low fuel." I never see it go any lower than that.

As for the question...about 28.5 gallons.

Might try running it out a bit further. Hope that doesn't increase my chances of sediment in my injectors though.

61 miles from when the light came on or 61 miles from when the computer says the amount of miles to "low range"?

Did you have to push..... this is the last vehicle I think I want to attempt to push

Nice to know you can use all 32 gallons, I have run it very low (past the low range point) and I have still only squeaked in a bit over 28 gallons and I topped it off pretty good too.

^^^^^NOT VERY SMART^^^^^

This is how you burn up an in-tank fuel pump amongst a laundry list of other problems that it can cause. Oh yeah and if you do burn up a In tank pump get ready to pay up as this would not be covered under warrantee as It would most likely be considered "Customer Abuse"

I usually fill up right at or before the light comes on typically 28 gallons or so....

30 gallons after a trip thru the Rubicon. The thing was chiming low fuel for 2 days I'm surprised the Onstar lady didn't say something smart like "get some gas bitch, you're out!"
