To my mind a thief will only get 'so' far if I only ever have a max of 1/4 tank!! 15litres? say 3 gallons? so the maximum radius I need go looking is 60 miles Damn sight better than looking over an area with a radius of 240miles!!!!
Anyway if the engine is destroyed due to a fault in the tank then Subaru is liable - end of story.
To all those smart 4rses above who are telling a Missile Design Engineer what happens when the mixture is weak, det det bang bang!! ha ha ha - just my line of work!! I will be fitting a Chocolate Boxer engine on the nosecone of the UK's next Nuclear Missile - it will be run from a Subaru Designed Fuel Tank, make it turn Right just over Bagdad and BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM we should have a nice 'Mother of all Pre-Dets'!!!!

Julian ******* Says:-
Perhaps if you all got better jobs than paper rounds you wouldn't need to drive round on 1/4 of a tank.
------------------------------------------------------------------
What the F?? you on about man?? the cost comes from the fuel USED not the fuel in the tank - you dingbat!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------

You asked the question Pete. If you are then going to call people who are trying to answer your question smart 4rses, then do you think they are going to bother again ? Grown up, idiot boy.

OK chaps, FWIW, on track you can get fuel starvation with still more than 1/2 tank left. This is a BAD thing !!!!
I HAVE the PowerStation swirl pot/fuel pump upgrade fitted and all I can say is it does exactly what it says on the tin. At Bedford I could run BELOW EMPTY on the gauge with no trace of starvation (as an experiment).
A modification which actually improves performance....bargain.

Forgot to say Pete.....
You have obviously never had fuel starvation happen to you or you would not be sceptical. Feels like the car has hit something it is so violent.

Pete,
What worries me, is that such an "expert" has to ask the question in the first place.
I can only assume that you design missiles for the US. This would explain how they gained a reputation for hitting the "friendlies" instead of the "enemy" !!!!!!!
