I always seem to fill up with it's about 12.6 or so down. :dunno: I'm going to go until the light turns on one of these times, heh.

I've only been getting 23mpg :wtc:

Same here. My car takes roughly 13-13.5 gallons to fill up from 'empty' All Accords (or at least since the 4th generation than I'm aware of) have 17 gallon tanks (including the 4 gallon reserve) Most all gas guages are designed to read 'E' a few gallons before the tank is completely empty... hence the reason the needle tends to move faster from half to 'E' than from 'F' to half. In any case, as someone mentioned above...never let your tank run dry. You'll burn up your fuel pump.

I tested the light with my civic a while back. It ran for 50 hard city miles before it started sputtering.

i thought 4th gens had 16 gallon tank. and from personal exp, from roughly 1/4-1/3 of a tank left is about 3 gallons or so before the light comes on. once the light comes on, i have no clue, cuz i dont like to push it that much
