I love the feeling when the only thing I have to worry about is the cooling system and not all the fancy gadgets. I guess mine being a 99 is one of the last ones out there and they had the E46 the same year.
I only said that because my other e36 which takes 89 gas. I put 93 in it anyways but my e30 318i I had put 87 gas and got me 40mpg. Damn I miss the simplicity of that car. |

I did say *can* . There will always be those that fall on the far right of the bell curve. Like I said, just a warning. As a mechanical engineer, professional pilot, and amateur mechanic I would advise against it but do as you (or your wife) wish. It isn't my money! Cheers

If I had to guess, that's a limit probably designed to keep the fuel line outlet submerged under reasonable incline conditions. For example, in my dead-level parking space, there's plenty of fuel getting to the engine, but perhaps on a 30 degree incline in San Francisco, below .5gal there's no guarantee that the engine can actually get fuel to run. But anyway, under good conditions, there's still enough fuel at dead empty to get a few miles. |
