I have had various results when filling up my tank. Twice I have filled up within 2 miles of the add fuel warning (blinking final bar) and twice about 30 miles after the blinking starts. I set the rate at the lowest setting and when the pump stops, I do not try to top off. The total gallons pumped seem to have a strong relationship to the ambient temperature:
- 7.692 gallons, Blinking for 30 miles, 12 degrees F
- 6.942 gallons, Blinking for 2 miles, 16 degrees F
- 8.130 gallons, Blinking for 3 miles, 28 degrees F
- 9.583 gallons, Blinking for 20 miles, 35 degrees F
- 10.144 gallons, Blinking for 22 miles, 56 degrees F
- 7.030 gallons, Two bars left, 42 degrees F
With some additional data, I may be able to plot something useful.

It's a Wonderful Day for Science!
