Usually till it runs out. :flipoff2:























Wish I could help, but I never hooked up the speedo cable.
I think I get about the same as the wife's TJ, so about 250 Km's on a 50 litre tank. Hmmmmm guess that doesn't help you either........:D

That's 156.25 Miles with 13.2 US Gallons, or 11.8 MPG.
