did a quick search, and the only thing I can find on the board is about doing a fuel tank swap... searching online, the only resource I can find are for OE Replacements that are 10 gallons...
Basically... I was running late for work today, saw the license plate in the store stating something like "400 miles on a tank of gas" or something, and then the OE replacement of 10 gallons and concluded that our tanks are 10 gallons... is that correct?
reason I'm asking is full to empty on the gas gauge I usually get about 250 miles on a tank... but have never put 8 gallons in when filling back up... it's always about 7.6-7.7... which is an average of about 32.47-32.89 mpg...
anyway, to stop rambling again... I was running late for work, stopping to get would have made me late instead of just on time, based on me averaging 32+mpg and only ever getting about 7.65 gallons, and seeing an OE replacement is 10 gallons, I was at 247 miles from last fill up and I work 27 miles from home... so I chanced it, lol, and made it... now I want to know if I can make it back home on what I've got because gas is 15 - 25 cents cheaper by my house...
so... in short... how many gallons is the stock fuel tank in my 1989 Ford Festiva L (Henry)?
