Well some of you guys probably have read my other posts about my top end spluttering. I replaced the fuel filter today and it seemed to fix the problem. Revs out to 8000rpm (and further I'm sure but not game) without any splutter. Anywayz I was on my way from testing when I felt a slight jerk in power and realized my fuel gauage was on red. Then on the way to the fuel station I heard like a pop noise, soughta like a normal cars back fire but only very quite. Not a big *bang*. Anywayz I just made it to the servo. 50 litres filled her up, so I'm guessing there was five in there? I think its a 55 litre tank. Have to check. Anywayz I thought o **** hope that wasnt an apex seal. So leaving the station I let her warm up and hit it in 2nd to see if there was any difference in power. It still went fine so I'm guessing I was just out of petrol. Anywayz if I did break something would it still have went normal?

I doubt it. When mine blew the engine was shaking like it wanted to come out of the car





The best way to find out is to have a compression test done.

It's a 16.6 gallon tank I believe, so you'll get 65 litres in her.

Depends on the year of the car for the tank size.

its definitly not a 65 litre tank. 55 Max.

maybe AUS cars have different tank sizes?

if it still starts, idles, and drives fine, it's OK. Really. I promise. when it's blown it'll be gutless. and use 1/2 tank of fuel to go 30km.
