    Default How big is a 91 Miata fuel tank?

    Trying to see how many mpg I am getting and not sure what size tanks came in these things.

    I have read that they are 12, 12.7 and 14 gallon tanks. Anyone know for sure?

    I get tired of pushing the cars to the gas station?

    Even when the low fuel light is on or the needle is on the red mark you still have a reserve and I wanted the exact size. Without that your still just guessing in a large margin and I don't care to spend the time and not be at somewhat accurate.

    im going to feel stupid if you really did buy another miata and im just pretending you meant to put 92. but, the one i sold you has LSD. not the original rear end. soo all documented stuff wont be as accurate.
