Just to add to that, my 89 XJ Limited most definitely has a 16 gallon tank, and the empty light comes on with about 1/2 a gallon left. Not only did I put 15.7 gallons in, the engine started to stall when I went around two sharp corners

well in America it's seems we get ripped off by our own government and the suppliers

Edit: sorry I know and OP it's a 20 gal tank and usually when you try to fill as much as possible, there's alway a lil bit left in the tank and there's also the air pocket at the top. They do make aftermarket 32gal tanks, this or 28 forgot which exactly. Will kill clearance though
