BT, how do you know that your tank is 20.9?

 

[BlazingTrails]

Because that is what it said in the RPO codes. And it never holds more than 20 gallons when the gauge is below e

 

[Capote]

I'll check my RPO code

 

[Mounce]

Interesting. Hadn't heard of different tank sizing besides SWB and LWB.

 

[BlazingTrails]

What size is yours? I'm pretty sure all swb are 20.9 gallons.

 

[Sparky]

Older SWB had 18 or so.

 

[TBLS]

I have filled up from E before and got almost 22 gallons put in.

 

[Capote]

Conspiracy lol

 

[dmanns67]

Mine says 22 gal, but never put anywhere close to that.

 

[Capote]

I know I have pumped 22 before lol

 

[BlazingTrails]

I remember searching it months ago and it showed 20.9 and it has never taken more than 20 gallons. It almost always takes 19.5-20.2 gal at fill up with gas light on almost empty. And yes I have. Ran out of gas one time and was the same....

 

[dmanns67]

Strange. My rpo code even says 22. I think I have only drove my TB to the point the gas light came on once. Sont remember what I put in, but even close to E is around 18 gal. The mileage calculations on my DIC does not even add up to 22 gal.

 

[Aarkon]

My truck has never gotten to 20

 

[TBLS]

I have ran out of fuel actually pulling up to the pump, luckily enough there was a decline to the pump so I rolled to it and when I filled up I actually got something a little more than 22 gallons but that only happened once. Since then I only let the TB get to the point of the light coming on and even then I am putting more than 21 gallons in. The last time I filled up with the light coming on I put I think 21.6 gallons in.

 

[Capote]

I overfilled once......not a lot of overspill...

First drive home in my TB from the dealer it ran out of gas at the gas station outside my apartment complex, Bastards didn't fill it up or top off fluids..chodes

 

[Mounce]

Either 25 or 26, I've seen that online though, think I'm gonna check my rpo's again.

 

[TBLS]

If it is 25 or 26 that's a big tank and I am glad I don't have something that big! LOL

 

[Sparky]

When my gas light comes on I still have nearly 3 gallons left when kissing E. Most I've put in my tank is 16.5.

 

[Capote]

I don't believe the EXT tanks are that much bigger bro, I believe like 2-3g more

 

[Mounce]

Well http://www.edmunds.com/chevrolet/trailblazer-ext/2004/features-specs/ says 25g. Like I said, I'll check my rpo's again. I've looked all of them up once but don't remember much of them.

 

[TBLS]

Well I have to go. I am playing text wars with my mom and grandma, my little sister is in the hospital. I was there at my moms for almost a week and a half waiting for this to happen and 2 days after I leave it starts!

Google is wrong then lol

 

[Midnyteryder196]

I filled up once.. In the year n half I've had it.. I'm pretty sure it was round 24-25 gal.. It was last fed 15th.. Only reason I know that is bc that same night she got stolen.. Lol

Oh God they really went hardcore to use up all that gas

 

[Midnyteryder196]

Haha negative.. Only like 1/8th to 1/4 tank.. It has this issue where when it's warm and you shut it down you have to pump the gas to get it to start back up usually.. So pretty sure they shut it down for some reason n couldn't get it started back up so just abandoned it about 20 miles from the house on a dirt road

 

[TBLS]

Thanks

 

[Capote]

Ohhh okay. I remember when you posted about it being stolen. It's a good thing you got her back

 

[Midnyteryder196]

I just wish I had followed through with the ins. Claim since they ended up dropping me anyway.. I could had my 06+ LT bumper by now.. Haha

 

[Aarkon]

Ya I already got a grill for it in storage

 

[Mounce]

Google is wrong then lol

Not trying to be an ass but why would you think google was wrong when you don't have access to an EXT and have never fueled one?

 

[Capote]

Because French Fry

 

[mcsteven]

My owners manual says 22. My Chilton guide says 22. And when it has been very empty (like 30 miles after low fuel light comes on), I can put 21+ gallons into it. I think I've put just over 22 into it once or twice (maybe .1 or .2 gallons more).

2006 Envoy swb, so while it's the same platform, of course different brands (or same brands different years) may have had different specs.

 

[Capote]

Okay so I was correct. How is Brandon's 20.9??

 

[Aarkon]

Night u gas guzzling whored

 

[Capote]

Lol my avg. Mpg is 7.....
Night you retrofitting Whoreo

 

[mcsteven]

Okay so I was correct. How is Brandon's 20.9??

Year and specs changed? Replaced before he got it and specs changed? Dent? Not completely empty when he fills it? Lots of possibilities.

 

[Capote]

Or he's a choderman?

 

[Mounce]

Lol my avg. Mpg is 7.....
Night you retrofitting Whoreo

Damn that's horrible lol. My lead foot got between 20-22mpg on our trip back. Gonna run it till its pretty low so I can get a more accurate number.

 

[Capote]

I only filled up twice when I drive up to NY, the second time being halfway through Jersey; and I was driving fast as hell the whole way. That being said, driving highway you have a crap ton more MPG's. Here in town I gun it everywhere. Not to mention idle a lot.

 

[Aarkon]

The week I bought my 08 swb at 127,000 we took it to Missouri and I got 24mpg
