There's really no way to tell, gauges vary wildly from one car to another, it's meant as a refence, not an actual measure.

Re: Fuel Display

I've driven mine for a week in the red, then put 5 gallons in and it read 1/2.

Then from there it takes 9 gallons to fill it. Crazy.

My rule of thumb with any GM has always been if you see the needle move at all when you turn the key on, you've got at least 25 miles left in it...

Re: Fuel Display

If I had to take a wild guess, I'd say you'd have 3-5 gallons in the red
