In the last few weeks when i fill from empty my 65 lt torridal tank has been taking 60 lts , and im doing more miles so the station reading is right . Will it cause any probs safety wise or not ?
cheers gav

You shouldn't be able to fill it more than around 80%(????) full - but we've found when the weather is cooler, we always get far more in than otherwise - which makes sense what with the expansion/contraction thingie due to heat/cold.
No real idea on the safety aspect though - but personally I'd limit it to the 80%.......
