Title: Fuel Tank Capacity & Gauge - 1977 Alfetta Sedan
Post by: RLeT on January 31, 2020, 12:17:24 AM
Hello Alfisti,

I have been reluctant to run my fuel gauge to empty for fear of running out of fuel.  I have read that the fuel tank capacity is 49L.  When reading empty, the tank fills after I add ~ 25L of fuel.  Can my fuel gauge be that far out?  Can my fuel gauge be smaller or be dented or something?

I'd greatly appreciate any feedback.

Thanks in Advance.
Richard.
