Petrol tank capacity

As far as I recall it is 65ltrs. But will tell you in the handbook.

I'm trying to source a handbook. Does anyone know if there is a PDF version availalbe for download from anywhere?

Thanks again,

Richard

I got it wrong. Checked my handbook (UK 1989 740 Estate) and it says 60ltr

Hope this helps.

Thanks very much for verifying that for me.

Much appreciated.

They come up periodically on ebay.

If you see a *black* cover Haynes manual, grab that too - it is far more informative than the blue cover version, although the models covered are only up to 1989 - it probably won't cover your type of fuel injection.

yea...my 1993 940t manual states 19.2 gall cap...i put in 21 gal the other day.....i guess the diff is the "reserve"

andy...lets see...i have my manual in front of me...1993 940.. under capasities...page 9:9 fuel tank (aprox) ... 19.8 us gal / 75 liters...

I regularly was able to put high 70's low 80's Ltrs in and on occasion more, no explanation really, I didn't think the spout held that much.

I have two 93 940's one sedan & one wagon. The sedan holds 21.x & the wagon holds 19.8 US Gal.

Your 740 wagon has a tank capacity of 65 Litres. It is possible to squeeze a couple more in if you are careful, however it is not recommended. For interest facelift 760 saloons had 80 Litre capacity (due to IRS and an extra tank) whereas pre-facelift 760 saloons had an extra tank in the trunk.
