When was the last time you filled up and put the full fuel tank capacity in?

I have a 60 litre tank. Fuel light comes on. I fill up about 50kms later and still only put in about 49 litres in at a time. (Most i have ever had to put in is 53 litres)
He said he "did a full tanks worth" so I wasn't really assuming anything.

Like I said, it's almost the same usage as 98 (in relative terms) and you get a butt-load more mid-range torque as well as a decent amount more power up top. That's why people went to the lengths of shipping it in by the barrel before it was available at the petrol stations.
