I am quoting YOUR words.....You get sprayed everyday with wiper fluid ? And you don't think you are the problem ? Too funny...Tailgate much ? OnZedge must be right on the money... I drive fast, I drive hard, and i can be agressive... In 35 years of driving I maybe had 2 people do that....And that was years ago when I drove stupid....

Or, you sound as if you are driving around 3,500 lbs of metal on the streets and don't realize the responsibility that comes with that. Who the f**k cares if you got sprayed?! Calm down. Human adults and human children stand no change of going up against 3,500+ lbs of metal. Think about your arguments and say them out loud. You might then realize how insecure and childish they sound to us. If I spray you and you get mad, I win. Regardless of what you do next, I won. Because you're incapable of being an adult and controlling your emotions, I won. don't allow other's actions to dictate your emotions.

On the 71 onramp it was probably 30-35-ish and same thing heavy acceleration after that up to about 65 and then fuel starvation (although that one was banking right). I definitely will be a lot more careful when am under 1/2 tank now. I think the significant factor in whether or not its recoverable once it starts is if are going uphill at all or not. Even a slight amount uphill seems to make it irrecoverable without adding more gas in it. In the 3 years I have had the car ive only had fuel starvation happen 3 times on the public road (twice on the track) and only two of these (on the road) actually resulted in getting stranded. Filling up every-time the gas tank is <1/2 tank just to avoid this is kind of ridiculous though. I will likely just be more careful when its under 1/2 tank to avoid it from happening. Still not cool though Nissan... |

Yep....You need to run a half a tank to drive hard...These cars do no like being below 1/4 tank....Is it a flaw ? Yes, but it is the way it is...

If someone is experiencing fuel starvation on the street, slow the hell down. Problem solved.

If you begin to sputter in a long right hander, can you straighten out at low speed and kind of wiggle back and forth to slosh some gas back over to the right side of the hump??? Coast to straight and reprime your right side fuel pump???
Also how much gas to get her running again? Could I carry a gallon or so around to avoid being stranded? I assume that the pump is on the right and so is the gas cap so a small amount of emergency gas would suffice.

It's really not that hard to keep the fuel tank above half-full. I mean, sure it's kind of a pain in the *** but if it's THAT big of an issue for people, the solution is fairly simple. As for carrying a gas can in your car... uh, I suppose 1 gal would be enough to get it going again. Your car will smell like a gas-station, but whatever works for you. Just pour the gas in, hit the start button twice to turn the fuel pump on and wait a few minutes for it to suck gas back into the system and it should start right up. ...or you can keep your gas tank half-full and never have to worry.

It would be a whole hell of a lot easier to just not let the main gas tank get low. Way easier than getting stranded, or keeping a smelly gas can in the car. Or not pull through corners that hard on the street. Or some combination of the two.

Your Karma is better than his. That's the truth.

I love shepherd's pie!!!
Comfort food is some of my favorite. We are headed to some Irish pub-like place tonight in Maple Grove, MN that apparently has a good version of it.
