Stuck
December 15, 2007 about Lincoln LS
I can normally go 50- 70 km after the gas light is on, but keep an extra gas tank in the trunk...b/c if you do run out of gas, the whole car shuts off, even the power steering and you will be mortified if you are causing a traffic jam! Ive done this three times now and have been warned...its not good for the car. Sara, ontario, canada

Driving your car to empty is very bad for your engine and can lead to permanent lockups. While it is nice to know how far you can get out of every last drop, it is doing severe damage... I have a 2003 ls and pamper it pretty good. I'm not trying to tell you what to do, but I don't wanna have you spend a dump load of money fixing something that you could've avoided.
