  • Avanti Fuel Tank Capacity

    Does anyone know the total tank capacity on a 1982 Avanti II. There is nothing in the owners handbook and I cannot find anything on line. I could not even find the capacity on the Studebaker tank.

    I am guessing it has to be around 20 plus gallons. We drive it a lot and it never needs much gas. I put 5 gallons in it today and the needle only moved from between 1/4 and a 1/2 to slightly over 1/2 tank.

    Thanks

    Steve

    If it's the same as the Stude then according to the manual it's 21 gal.

      It's a 21-gallon tank but I don't know if anyone has been able to actually get that much gas in one. I don't think the tank changed until they came out with convertibles which needed a smaller tank to give the top an area to close into.

        Thanks Guys, we are making a trip in the car this weekend and I was trying to figure how far that tank would get me and if the gauge was reading correctly. I think it is because when we got the car it was on dead empty and it went to almost half a tank when I put 10 gals in it.

        Thanks again,

        Steve
