Ok I went to the gas station to day. I told the guy 10 bux witch gets me like 4 gallons. so they guy starts puttting the gas in and it only puts 1 gallon of gas in. The guy kepps trying to put more in and they guy tells me it wont take anymore he's like you have a full tank .. My gas gauge dont work at the moment Dont ask.. but some how i got a full tank of gas over night. because i didnt have much in there they day be4.. its werid

How do you know it's full?

Mine never will pump but a gallon or two without shutting of at least once or twice on its own, more if the gas is moving out of the nozzle at high velocity.

Roy, the attendent is not holding the nozzle correctly. If it ain't splashing it ain't full.

dude i don't even know how big our tank is... anybody care to answer my question? i always just put 5 gallons in... when i start getting to a quarter tank... so 8 gallon tanks?

I believe the gas tank capacity is 12 or 13 gallons. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

11.7 gallons
but when mines on E i can put like average of 7.4 gallons in?

11 gallons? does that mean my fuel meter doesn't work right? i've filled up at like 7.5 gallons and i get about 260 highway miles.... 11 Gallons!!! i've never let it get below the E but when it gets to the E on road trips i fill up and it's like 7.5 gallons!! WTF?!?!?!

you must be a half empty kinda guy where as the attendant is a optimist.
is it a law that you can't pump your own gas or something? I've never been to a full service station befoer

^^^ ya you cant pump your own gas it kida suck some of those dum asses scratch my paint try to get it in the hole.

I may be thinking of my ep im not sure lol and i only get like 220 miles driving in the city

dude is mine a special tank or what? seriously i only get 7.5 gallons and i'm full!! like even when i fill at quarter tank the five gallons fills me up!! that's why i only put 5 gallons at quarter tank... 1986 Civic Si here!!

For the CRX's i know for a fact the HF has a 10.1 gallon tank, which i believe is that same for the DX, and the SI is 11-something. and yes the gauge is a horrible indicator.

i always fill up at a little about E, and it's 8 gallons. honda wasn't stupid, they don't want someone to run out of gas.. so if it's on the E, you still have time to get to a gas station. if your car had no gas at E, people would be running out all the time. automakers do this as a safety..
