Since gasoline is roughly 7.5 lbs/gallon, he'd have to have a pretty large tank to shed 76 lbs! I'd basically be empty in my CRX (mechanically pretty close to the 'Teg) if I left 10 gallons out of it.


BTW, I recommend against removing the ABS. Going lighter is good and all, but ABS is a Very Good Thing Indeed (TM). It could save your life someday, or at least your front bumper/hood/radiator support.
