Fuel light question

[G3GirL]

when the fuel light comes on in our cars, typically how many more miles can we still go? i don't let my gas get that low, but i'd like to know for my own peace of mind

I think that means 2 gallons left so it would be whatever you get mpg times 2, maybe a little less. so like 50-70 miles. I wouldnt let it run that low though.

I think we should scare her and say about 5 miles left to go? lol


i heard it was 30 miles, but i guess it depends on HOW you drive.

you WANT the light on? lol that's a first. maybe your gas just never got low enough.

 

[teggyls]

well i try not to get my gas that low but just it has gotten pretty low like to the e line and no light

the owners manual doesnt say. all it says is that its an indicator that you must refuel soon. well no shit lol.

I've never messed with the one in my Teg, but I have changed the one in my 1998 Civic. The bulb is a really weird size (it's smaller than a 194) that you can only get at Honda, and it costs like $4.50 for the stupid little thing!
I could see in my cluster (in the Civic) that it had a gas light figure in it, but the thing never lit up. So I changed the bulb, and it still doesn't light up. That's weird that some Civic's would have a functioning gas light and some wouldn't. And there was a bulb already in there when I took out the cluster, too.

But anyway, that's how you change it. Just pull the cluster and pop in a new bulb that will cost you $4, and costs Honda 4 cents.
