People will say it sucks up all the muck from the bottom of the tank, but the fuel is drawn from the bottom of the tank anyway and there is a filter to trap the muck if there even is any. It's just an old wives tale really!


Well I'm at 160 on this tank and the needle is about a mm above empty so maybe I'll be brave and see what I actually get to a tank (once the Jerry can in full lol)

If you've got a fuel can in the car there's nothing to lose! Then you'll know how much you can push it in the future.
