Put in $15 worth to get me by for another week or so. Hopefully it will be warm enough to undercoat the tank, if not I could be in some trouble.

Had to fill up partway after going to Madison Heights to buy a 1 TB hard drive. The gauge was below the red empty mark, but adding less than 4 gallons brought it up to half. The new gas tank is patched, just needs to be undercoated before putting it in.

Was at 1/8th of a tank, wanted to put some in but not fill it so far that it will leak. Should have time to fix the leak/put in the other gas tank this week, once I am sure what the problem is.

The gas that this is replacing was used to get home from Warren, Ohio, then to school and back twice, and to work twice. I doubt it will be as high as 36 MPG.

Filling up before going to get a non-leaky gas tank from TONYCASH from the Festiva Forums. This tank was almost all driving to work and school, so it will probably not be good. Guess I was wrong... Second best tank!

MPG will probably be lower this time, since I still haven't done anything more about the leak (been sick) and there was no highway driving.

Failed to fix the gas leak completely, but had to fill it again so I could find the place where it is still leaking.

The gas tank leaks... The leak stopped 3/4 of a tank, so I had to re-fill it so I could find the leak and fix it.

Less than 8 gallons filled the tank from empty! That would only fill the Toronado to half! The gas'll probably last twice as long too!
