Yeah, it is 68 litres but it is possible to put more in! One time I put in about 72 litres!

Every 6 cyl Falcon sedan from EA to BF has a 68 litre tank.
And I'm almost 100% certain the same goes for the V8 sedans. And all the Falcon wagons. And Fairlane/LTD. Only the ute's have bigger tank varieties. And the LPG cars. The AUII - BF E-Gas sedans have a 90 litre tank.

Depends on the model.
E series roughly 6-10 litres, AU - BF roughly 10-15 litres

Remember you can fill the tank and the fuel filler neck. Which adds probably a litre or two.

and also you have to add the small amount in the lines and the filter... the wagons had 72 litres... i remember thinking why they had bigger tanks... still dont know???
yeah my trip meter said about 80ks to empty in my ghia... had it down to saying 4km one day... probably running on fumes and particles... i have found with any car you can get at least 50ks out of the petrol light... depends on how you drive though, but sensibly youll get at least 50... |
