Steve Gee Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 I have a 93 J-spec TT Aerotop Auto. I've had the car over two years now, and I keep meaning to ask this question. Question is simple enough! How big is my fuel tank????? The gauge regularly drops to the E, but I still only put 65 litres in. I don't think I've ever put over 70 in, but I thought it was an 80 litre tank. Am I right or wrong??? Thanks Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3any Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 60 litres aint it, and the UK is 70 ???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

400BHP Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 I know mine takes 60 quid to fill up from empty!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Wierd thing is, at the Texaco Garage in Tdcaster I've put 71 litres in my J-spec, which leads me to believe that the garage is selling short measures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprash Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 Ok, heres another for you. On the J-Spec tanks they have that reduced nozzle thing stuck in there, because in Jap land they have small skinny ones, and in the UK we have big fat ones, fuel pumps that is. Anyway I know you can pull out the nozzle reducer thingy, leaving more room for our UK nozzles. But how do you get them out, as I have had a good tug at mine but it doesnt really seem to move anymore. Anyone know..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesG Posted May 21, 2003 Share Posted May 21, 2003 I didn't know J-spec ones have a smaller hole to the tank. Mine definitely doesn't and it's easy to fill up, so I guess it must have been removed at some stage. My sister's Mk2 MR2 (UK) has a tiny hole and it's really hard to fill without the nozzle cutting out all the time. I'll have a look at the weekend and see if the restriction is removeable. James.

Steve Gee Posted May 21, 2003 Author Share Posted May 21, 2003 So, is James right, and I have a 70 litre tank? It can't be 60, 'cos I regularly put 65 in. Cheers Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
