It varies for every car. Usually 1-1.5 gallons when the low fuel light comes on. I drove my last '93 Ford Taurus around until the gauge said it was empty. Lifted the car and took the gas tank off and it had 3 or more gallons still in it. Here's some fun, zero your odometer, fill the gas tank and drive it until the low fuel light comes on. Then drive it till it dies out, obviously somewhere near home or where someone can drop off a full gas can.

Hello i have a coaster motorhome 1990 i need to know what the orange light is on the dash below the fuel gauge . it has only just come on . Im woundering if it has anything to do with the fuel tank

if the fuel gauge is reading low --under a 1/4 full then very possibly it is a low fuel light and you have about 5 liters of fuel left to get to a fill point

Low gas indicator light does not come on when guage is on E

The fuel pump is kept cool by the fuel in the tank. It is rare for a Toyota fuel pump to fail but if your running it that low on gas your not helping last any longer. I would suggest not letting your tank get below a quarter tank. That way you will never have to worry about whether or not the light will come on. Typical there would be about a gallon or less of fuel in the tank before the light would come on. If it did come on you would have about 20 miles r so of fuel left in the tank.

Hi. i have a 2007 dodge nitro. i was just wondering how far can u go when your low fuel light comes on?

Traditionally when the fuel light comes on you have about 1/16 of a tank left. Depending on weight in your car and weather your driving highway or in town and the speed you are driving as well as the quality of gas and how efficient your car run (MPG) on average just a few miles. I recommend you get some gas before that light comes on. Gauges are never perfect and it may leave you stranded sometime.

Why do my gas needle go from low fuel light on to exactly how much gas I have in the tank?

I'm not sure I am understanding your question. The low Fuel indicator light comes on, depending on how sensitive it is set, when you have between 2 and 5 gallons of gas left in the tank. This also depends on how accurate your fuel level sending unit is reading the fuel level in the tank. The low fuel level light depends on the level of fuel in the tank itself but other than using that sensor it has nothing to do with the fuel gauge itself. The fuel gauge may or may not be accurately showing the fuel level.

How much fuel is left when the low fuel light comes on with a 2005 saturn vue

Traditionally you are left with 10 liters of fuel when the fuel light comes on but it is rather advisable you don't always let it come on as it might allow the fuel pump pick dirts from within the fuel tank.
Rate this please.
Good luck.

How much gas is left in the tank when the low fuel indicator light comes on in a 2007 Kia Sedona

Generally, vehicles have about 100 km of reserve left. Of course, this depends on how you drive it!

With that said, I have driven over 100 km in my 2004 Sedona, with the light on (and my knees knocking). Was in a place where fuel wasn't readily available and I went for it. I was happy to have the 5-5-5 warranty, as they would have come out with some fuel, ut it was a trying experience!

Hope this helps!!!
