when i refuel to the brim, the performance is obviously not the same as when i have a 1/4 of fuel left. the diffence is quite a bit though, so i was wondering, how much exactly does a full tank weigh compared to 1/2, 1/4 ??
does anyone no |
Well a full tank obviously weighs 2 x 1/2 a tank and 4 times a 1/4 tank.

I would guess that a billy can full (Gallon) is about 8 lbs
Do the maths from that. 8 lbs is only a guess could be more:D Adam Edited for eclipses wise words LOL:D:D:D:D [Edited by rb5037 - 6/25/2003 1:40:43 PM] |
That makes it 1lb per pint, 1.76lb per litre, 88 lbs for 50 litres, which is 40kg. Seems about right.
A 30kg weight saving is quite a bit. |
Mr Eclipse,
thanx for your contribution, what would we all do without u??:) RB5037, do u no the size of the tank - gallons? does no one else notice this or is the difference not that significant? |
1 gallon of fuel weighs 6lbs
The Impreza has a 60 litre fuel tank 1 gallon = 4.456 litres so 1 litre weighs 1.34Lbs A full tank of fuel weighs 80.79Lbs or 36.64Kg 1/4 tank weighs 9.16Kg 1/2 tank weighs 18.32Kg 3/4 tank weighs 27.48Kg full tank weighs 36.64Kg |
My guess work sounds about right GOLD STAR for me then. And they say fishermen always exsagerrate sp?
And there's me thinking this topic wouldn't move he he :D Adam Edited due to reading 6Lbs for a gallon...whats 2 Lbs between friends:D [Edited by rb5037 - 6/25/2003 2:28:50 PM] |
