XM fuel capacity

[scotts]

Does someone know off the top of their head what the XM's fuel capacity is??
we're driving from revy to Sic talking about this and I can't find it on their site??
one of the fine S@M ladies or gents are sure to know!

 

[Bnorth]

40 litres

When does the reserve light come on?

The fuel gauges are terrible.

The fuel gauges are terrible.

Agree!!!!

I can squeeze 26ish km down Renshaw when the light comes on, or 15 if on gas hard.

Yeah, fuel gauge is grossly inaccurate. On deep days....I usually start to get nervous around 70-80km. On days where snow is more setup it is super good on gas and can easily do 120km to a tank

You have crappy mileage I can go about 135km on 30L

I usually burn 30-35 a day In less than 100 km. my 174 gets way better mileage than my 154. Track lenth matters as you will be wide open all day with a shorter tracked sled. Make sure to burp (shake) all xm's when filling. There's 4-7 more liters I can squueze in most times.

I get really good mileage at 1/4 throttle too!

I notice that if you "bra bra braap" it a lot instead of holding the throttle steady, they use waaaay more fuel.

Plus if u clicker to 1 for the trail up and down, makes 20-30 km more to a tank



80-100 for me on deep days and using clicker 1


Might make 80 km if I don't

The other night I filled up my t3, I burped it twice and filled within an inch to the top. When I got home and unloaded, I went for a spin around the field and put it in the garage. The next day there was a pool of fuel on the floor under it. I opened the fuel cap and about 500ml or so of fuel came gushing out.

Any ideas why it did this and is this normal?

 

[cancritter]

normal...just expansion of the fuel...if your gona use machine then yer fine...if not don't fill

 

[CUSO]

If I have a cold sled that goes into a warm trailer/garage, I never burp the sled if I fill. it will expand and blow out of the check valves... If you are going out to ride immediately, then that is the time to burp..or at least if the temps don't rise.

^^^^ this for fuel mileage... I have gone a easy 40km with the light on steady. Even more so, how little oil is used with steady throttle. Plus it keeps the whoops down on those non-groomed trails

Do you guys find the gauges to be consistently inaccurate. In that are the wrong levels indicated by the bars close to being the same for how much fuel is actually in the tank.
We were riding Eagles pass on Monday and the gauge was hitting two bars so we decided it was time to bail. Got back to the truck and had put on 100k. Filling up the next morn I put in 22 litres on the nose??

 

[Summitric]

I only had my t3 for 650kms, but i found the fuel gauge to be quite accurate... Never a problem with the readings, unless inspecting the track... Lol

I had my sender replaced in my 14 under warranty, some times it showed full, sometimes empty even tho it had 1/2 to 3/4 of a tank


I really think marked fuel screwed it up, haven't used it since and so far lasted longer than the first one
