Are ours that big? I certainly can't get much more than 40 litres of fuel in there.

Well you learn something new everyday! My truck has a 76 litre tank. I wouldn't have imagined an NSX's tank was close to that (weight-saving and all).

Broken fuel gauge? I do full tanks and fill up when the light comes on, and I fill up 59-60 liters.

Nah, it's been in all my ludes. I never wait until the light comes on, just until the needle is on the last line. In my 4th gen I'd try to never let the last bar disappear. As I'd always fill up until the auto-cutoff and generally get around 40 litres I just assumed it was a 50litre tank. I assumed the NSX would be the same.

So I obviously always have a lot of fuel in reserve :lol:
