Why you should always carry a can!
How many times has this happened to you?
There you are driving along and you glance down at the fuel gauge. Oops the petrol gauge says it is really close to empty!
Now I really want to get to work before I am late and all the garages seem to have queues a mile long (well almost!) so I to carry on and get some petrol later on in the day.
Needless to say I did'nt remember and so it goes on. With every mile I take I am pushing my luck and promising myself that I will fill up at the next petrol station. I would guess I travelled another 15 miles or so until I have topped the tank up.
I have a Toyota RAV4 and in my user guide it says "when the petrol light comes on you should fill up soon." Well "soon" means different things to different people. Can anyone tell me how many more miles they have managed to drive when the petrol light shows red? My husband drives a peugeot and his manual says "when the petrol light comes on you can go approximately 30 more miles."
I suppose I could experiment and top up the petrol can that I keep for emergencies (usually empty I may add) and fill it up and drive around a quiet residential area until the petrol light comes on. Set the milometer and drive until the petrol runs out. Then I would know how far I can go before running out completely. Simple idea, but probably not good for the engine.
I suppose the sensible thing to do would be to go the other way and never allow the tank to go below three quarters empty because at the end of the day it really is so much hassle having to panic at the last minute and find somewhere to fill up!
I would be interested to know how many more miles you have managed to get after the red light has appeared!

Frequently Asked Questions...
When ordering gauges from Hot Topic, do they come as a set (two gauges for two ears) or do you get one gauge?

I am planning on buying gauges like the above link.
It says "pincher" so I'm assuming it's $12 for one gauge, $24 for two.
Clarify?
Answer:
I think it's a typo.
And they're called pinchers and plugs, not gauges.
