56 so far, just checking everything is ok. :lol:

Out of interest how many miles do people get out of a standard tank.
I get just over 40, before the fuel pump starts making noise as it sucks air.

That really does depend on many variables

I saw 260 recently down to fumes with average driving, have done 280 before now with some left :shock: some how, but has been a lot lower too :wink:
