It has a light for low fuel-unless the bulb is burnt out.

Tank capacity is 15.4 gallons.

The low fuel light should turn on during start-up. If you dont see it at all, its probably out.

Tank capacity is 15.7 gallons, and the low fuel light comes on at 3 gallons remaining.

Whaa?

I've ran out of gas in my a couple of times before. I have never seen a low fuel light come on since i got the car. Are you sure 96-98 mustangs have this light? Any one have one with a pic? I find it kinda wierd that it burns out.

As far as i remember they dont have a gas light. I have owned a 95 gt, 95 v6 and now a 97 cobra and none of the three cars had that light. I believe the newer (99 up) cars have it.

So just go put some gas in it?



Only Mustangs with LOW FUEL warning lights are the 87-89 GT's and the 99+ Mustangs.

I'm also pretty sure my '98 GT has no gas light. My old '89 GT did, though.

They put so much time into the clock pod that they forgot the low fuel light. . . .

No, they didn't forget it's called weight reduction. 96-98's were slightly heavier so they compensated by not adding that extra light bulb and wires.
