Filled the tank, lowest I have ever let it go. 396 miles driven, 17 miles to empty per the computer.

I thought the X took 24 gallons?

Yeah, this came up last year.

I regularly put 25 gals in the X (run down to "0" or 10 miles past "0").

LOL at your gas prices. $0.70 higher for me last night at Costco in Vegas! :wow: Sub $3/gallon gas still exists? Who knew? :dunno:

It was 3.03 with .40 cent discount. First time in memory it has been over 3.00.

I add 10oz EVERY fill-up.

This said it treated up to 25 gallons & is I think what I used. I need 2 per tank?

Amazon.com: Lucas 10020 Fuel Treatment - 5.25 oz.: Automotive

That fuel pump must get hot pretty often...

I normally don't go below 1/4.

Still running OE pump, even with the TX/FL heat. I think the Lucas keeps it lubed.

I've run it to the point of fuel starvation once in the past 5 year, 20 miles after "0" appeared. Running to 10 miles past "0" leaves around 1/2 gallon.
