I have a 1995 Firebird with the standard 15.5 gallon (not 1LE) gas tank. I have never "pushed it" in terms of low fuel loads with racing/autocrossing. This weekend, it may make sense to push it.
How low can you go? I am thinking that 3 gallons is a lower limit, but this is pure speculation on my part. |

My '02 would cut out with a 1/3 tank in long sweepers on the road course.
