About LinkBacksI have a VK berlina, standard fuel tank, ~60 litres i think. How much petrol should i actually be able to put in it? I fill it whenever the needle is on red and i almost always manage to put 40litres in.

From dead empty you should be able to put 55-60l in it.
From memory the VK had a 55L tank standard, I regularly fill 55-53L in my VK .
cheers

What about a VC?

VB-VL had 65 litre tanks standard. Some HDT built VC-VL got either an 80litre or 90 litre tanks.

if in doubt consult your manual

whitch will trap air

Yeah Scott, that's what I thought after looking at a heap of Web sites stating they all have 63 litre tanks from VB. No doubt you could probably max it out 2-3 litres thoughHolden official fuel tank size is as follows
Sedan - 63l
Wagon - 68l
if in doubt consult your manual
luxo barge
grab a jerry can and put a little fuel in it, then next time your on the red line, keep driving and find out how much your guage is out

I had the exact same problem with my Berlina VK. Was told it could be like the lil float or measuring device in the fuel tank...most likely bent or broken or something like that. But that trapped air theory is also likely. My bet is that if you actually just drove till you ran out of fuel, your gauge would be right...I just don't think its the gauge for some reason.
Crossed over to the dark side...
Why would trapped air make a difference?
dah dut dut da dah
if you can't get the air out
you can't get the fuel in
