    20i fuel gauge

    Does anyone know how much fuel is still in the tank when the bottom bar starts blinking?

    I second this. I think mine was right about 1/3 tank. It was definitely more than 1/4 tank I know that.

    Typically if I fill her up and run it down to the flashing bar and the next time I fill her up I only have to put 10-11 gallons in. Seeing how I have 2 25 gallon tanks. When the bar is flashing there is about. 10 or so gallons left

    Well I guess these gauges aren't too accurate. I ran both tanks down until the last bar was flashing on both tanks. I also have 2 25 gallon tanks. The starboard side tank held 5 gallons and the port side held 11 gallons.
