Wow, just getting back to read this all.
1. not putting only a couple of gallons in because I can't afford more gas and one suggested. I keep the tank topped off most of the time, and its also an excuse to go for a drive. (need to put gas in the car)
2. I can believe the 1/3 gallon in the hose and even if I'm only putting in 3 -4 gallons 1/3 gallon is not much at all. I can not believe 1/2 cup left in the hose.
3. I keep the tank topped off just like I do in my boats. Condensation and the humidity down here can cause water in your fuel, and it does not take much water now that the ethanol is in the gas to have major issues. I had Phase Separation in one of my fuel tanks on the boat. What a mess to deal with. 75 gallons of trash gas to get rid of...... I learned more than I ever want to know about ethanol in gas after that fiasco.
4. I can VERY much tell the handling of my car on a light tank vs a full tank. When I worked for a race team in the old Grand AM series we often short filled tanks based on mileage and drivers changes. 10th of a second count.
Cheer!
