Most gas you've EVER got in your tank?

Last night, on the way home from Summit Racing in Reno, I ran out of gas. Well, actually, I left from Modesto with a full tank, got to Reno, then came back, and ran out in the middle of stockton. (From Modesto to Reno it's 220 miles) I actually ran out on the freeway doing 75, so I threw it into neutral and was able to coast about a mile, to an exit. Got it off the freeway, and it actually fired back up, so I got to 75 again as fast as I could, and put it back into neutral, got it to coast another mile, to the gas station. Ended up, I drove EXACTLY 400 miles on that tank of gas. The tank held 11.59 gallons.
So, how much have you got in your tank?

Well I know it is within a few miles per hour of where my speedo is cuz the tire size is different than stock.

Re: Most gas you've EVER got in your tank?

my car goes about 260 miles on the tank - it's probably cuz it's an automatic cuz i know there aren't any mods done to it

what would help my mpg? I probably need someone to clean out my fuel injectors

Re: Most gas you've EVER got in your tank?

Just for the record you shouldn't "top off" your tank.

When the pump clicks off, stop.

The extra gas will find it's way into you evaporative system and screw stuff up.
