    Yea ive read on the internet that it's 50L but once in my old dc2 i ran the tank almost dry (car was starting to cut out and JUST made it in to the station) and i filled it and put in 44.7L. So would there still be over 5L in there still?

    Roughly 14.5 K's per Litre 7Litres/100k. I've never actually emptied the tank and filled right up. I usually run it to the last line, fill it up from there (most times) with 24-26litres and get average of 350k's out of a tank.
