anyone here know how much exactly the 'reserved' fuel amount (in litre) inside the tank after the fuel warning light start turning on?
Should be around +-8 litres left in the tank when the fuel warning lights up. I usually fill up until really full ( near the filler). If u pump at petronas, the nozzle wil 'tendang' 3 times.. If u fill up until really penuh when fuel warning lights up steadily (not padam-nyala-padam-nyala), u can only fill 37 litres.. so around 8 litres left in tank. (EK fuel tank capacity = 45 litres)..

ic...no wonder when pumped full tank oni got approx. 36-37 litres. 4got got another 8 litres reserve fuel :)

once got 14km/l (pumped in v-power full tank) - drive from kl-kuala perlis (that's 500km) & maintained speed of 120kmh, s/times WOT. yet fuel check light still not on when arrived there...blardy save indeed. but town driving's like hell - oni got 11-12km/l ajee :(

btw, mine's D15B engine EK3 auto...

I play with that. Actually less than 8 liter. I think for EK 45 liter tank, max they can store 43 liter like that. The most fuel I pump is 42 liter, light nyala for 30km. I try further and my car cannot start liao. Coz not enuf pressure for fuel pump already. So when ur light turned on, above 30km is dangerous already. :X-:
