Default Most Fuel you have ever put in.

I know people have asked on numerous occasions how far everyone is getting out of a tank of juice but I was wondering how close to the 60 liters that subaru claim the tank is without running out.

I've put in 53L with the old MY 98 and 52L with the Pig. Don't want to go any further by choice but would like to know how far I can get away with if I really get stuck.

I am guessing all the Non Classics are fitted with identical fuel tanks but if anyone knows different that would be good to know.

Ive managed to drain it down to one litre in the tank. Ended up putting in just over 60L because fuel filled up all the way up the filler tube right to the neck.

He He. The Fuel light on my dash was lit for at least 50km.

55L or so - I rarely run down to the point where the fuel light comes on.

Cool so if I aim for 53 liters Max ( about 60 km on the fuel light ) sounds like I am pretty safe.
