    Lowest I did was 8 liters left in my Starex. The gasboy kept scratching his head, wondering why it took so long to fill it up. My wife and I ran out of gas in our CRV looking around for a factory in an export processing zone. Had to hitch a ride from a company shuttle to get gas outside.

    thanks very much for the advice.

    1/4 should be safe..pero mas maganda sana kung alam mo kung gano kalakas kumunsumo yung ride mo para matancha mo din .. halimbawa e 5 km/li kumunsumo e dapat before 1/4 e magpakarga na para safe ..

    tanung ko lang po..di ba delikado yung catalytic converter kapag masyadong mababa na yung fuel level?

    1/4 or below is a sign for me to refill my fuel tank, no need to worry na mauubusan ako ng gas.

    Catalytic Converter has nothing to do with the fuel level. it is more on pollution control.

    half of my gauge or sometimes lower, fill up na!

    mahirap maghabol ng full tank pag pa-empty na.

    I reached up to the last line on the fuel gauge once, but that was a long time ago. Since then I regularly get a full tank on a schedule once a week every Monday.

    hmm..ok...thanks for the info..kaya ko natanong kasi may nakapag-advice sa akin na dapat daw wag hayaang maubos yung fuel sagad sa bottom ng tank to prevent catalytic converter damage ..

    CC has nothing to do with fuel starvation as posted earlier. Mas mahirap sa diesel pag naubusan ka kasi you need to pump the fuel para walang air and for it to supply the injection pump.
