I've been looking on t'internet but can't find it. You are probably right thinking about it as when it goes on reserve I usually stop ASAP to fill up but never seem to get that much fuel in!!

Yes standard (8 litre) tanks 3 litres (res) with a fast flow so on a 12 litre it must be close to 4 litres..

I was shocked to find that out about fast flows, thought my standard sil was giving TS1 economy.. :shock:
