The one comment I have come across that has me scratching my head is the DTE calculation gets messed up and there is no way (on my truck at least) to reprogram the computer for the larger capacity.
Does anyone here who runs extra capacity tanks have issues with the DTE calculation?
It's not a deal breaker for me if it becomes unusable , but I do look at it from time to time.
I have a 20 gallon AUX tank. I watch the number of gallons used on the dash. Mostly, when that is gone and the fuel gage starts to drop it is time for a stop and stretch and that is when we start looking for fuel ~~225 - 250 miles. At that point the DTE is very close.
