When was the last time you ran out of gas?

Question:
I ran out of gas last week on my motorcycle, but i dont have a gas gauge on it so i have a little bit of an excuse. but it was stupid to think i could make it home just on the reserve. i had to push it 6 blocks to a gas station, at least i got it off the freeway, lol.

Answers:

How long does it take ?

Here's a tip: The best way to gauge fuel level on a motorcycle is to take an average mileage off the odometer. In short, fill it up and keep checking the tank. When it gets to its lowest just before fill up, check your odometer. Keep doing this and writing it down. Then do your mathematical average to see what you get. That should be your maximum range you can go before running empty.

If you should get a job, is it worth walking for it? Or is driving better?

In 41 years of driving, it might have happened once, but I really can't remember when. Letting a tank get that low is really pretty dumb.

What is meant by "Engine Brake Use Prohibited"?

It's been years. It's so embarrassing to have to push your car out of traffic or walk to the gas station carrying that gas can that it only took me a few times (haha) to learn not to drive on empty. I was pretty young, though (still living with the parents). I wouldn't ever let my car get that low now, especially since I almost always have a kid in the car with me these days.

Can I Put a Fuel Tank at my home for personal Use.?

About 8.30 one very wet night, twenty years ago. Hasn't happened since, but came close the other day - about 7/8ths of the tank used when I finally found a gas station.

Is 18 mpg good?

In over 42 years of driving, I can't ever remember running out of gas. I always try to refuel when the tank gets to a 1/4 tank.
I figure that I need the gas anyway, so why not already have it in the car instead of having ot walk somewhere to fill a gallon can of it ?

How do i go about developing a questionaire for a starting a car rental service?

Boy does this question bring back memories. My best friend and I were driving from Alexandria Va, to Hinton, WV to visit my grandmother. My friend had never met my grandmother, she was 87 at that time. Anyway we were driving down rt. 81 and I stopped at a truck stop that I usually stopped at ( and usually got gas). We were talking so much and enjoying each other that I ran out of gas about 20 miles from my grandmothers home in Hinton WV. It was pretty embarrassing. It was just beginning to get dark and I was so proud of the people of WV. We got a ride down the road about a mile to a gas station, they were very helpful, drove us back, put enough gas to get back to the station and we filled up. So very nice, I've never forgotten it. My grandmother died at 93 yrs. old.
