I fill up to the top of the fill pipe now. I get over 360 miles in average conditions and about 20mpg, less in head winds. Usually add around 17 or so gallons at the fill. bob Stevens '87 Syncro Westy TIICO > I put gas in it and it took 15.572 gallons... > The owners manual says it takes 16 gallons. Just about every gas guage in the VWs I've had is overly optimistic. My current 90 wants to have 1/4 tank for too long and then BAM! we're almost dry. I can get somewhere around 300 miles on a tank - sometimes more - so I track it like that. Almost ran out the other day and put 16 gallons back in. Oops!
