Re: How long can car idle on a tank of gas?
yesterday i tailgated the UCF football game and we were using my car stereo as a bom box. 800 watts (max) pulling for 6 hours with the car idling. I have a 3.3L V6 thats in great shape. Even in the hot central florida sun the temperature gague stayed right where it is supposed to be. I proabaly used 2 gallons of gas, if that much. My car has a 110amp alternator.
