Re: '96 Cherokee Tank capacity
The dealer told me when I purchased my 96 country new in 96 to "never let the gage get close to empty as the gages are very un-predictable". I know that this model has a low fuel warning light but I have never seen it lit and have 110 k on it now. I always fill up before it gets much lower than 1/2 tank per the gage. RM~ |
