yeah, mine was like 13 or 14 gallons to fill up. same here with the messed up gas gauge. when i filled it up it went haywire, And when it was low the gauge would go all the way down to the light, and i never ran it out of gas. It sputtered once, When it was all the way down, But i still drove like 10 miles before a gas station. I managed to squeeze 22 mpg out of my car one time. yay for grannie driving.

Supposed to be an 18 gallon tank. Most I've ever gotten mine down to was 15.2 gallons on fill-up.
