09EX1.8

I recently bought a 2009 EX civic in 2010. My fuel light comes on with 3 squares left on my gauge. I was wondering if anyone has driven there civic with no squares and about what was the range they made it before fueling again? Thanks for the help...

I live in earthquake country (L.A.) and never let my fuel gauge get lower than half way so I wouldn't know but I'm interested in what kind of responses you get.

Mine comes on after 2 segments remaining have been on a while, I have ran 30+ miles with 0 segments left. Never fill up anymore, can't say what was left.

Gas light always comes on when ur like half way done with ur second final bars ive driven with no bars for about 20 - 30 mins so about 20 miles with no bars kinda scary to get stranded to i always end up fueling up

My '08 Civic EX manual says you have about a gallon and a half when the light comes on.

Bringing back this older thread....

(I was curious) I have driven down to 1 square for a few miles (several times) and then refilled only putting in a max of about 10-11 gallons...?? If the capacity is 13.2 gallons, then my gauge must be off

I am going to test it again by driving on low fuel and get a fillup... (I know this isn't good on the fuel pump to drive on low fuel because of heat)
