Actually, I was hoping for a little more accurate measurement.

Thx anyway Alan.

Anyone else have an answer?

The fuel tank capacity is listed in the owners manual. The
actual capacity is generally three or four gallons more than the
fuel gauge will indicate.

Umm, is your gas light the kind that kind of fades on and off? Coz the
light on my civic kind of does that - you know sometimes on and
sometimes off. At that point, I have about 3 gallons or so. It starts
staying on all the time when I am down to about 2.

So with a 13 gallon tank, when my gauge read "Full", I actually have 17
gallons?
