Answer
a car can hold from 15 to 18 gallons of gas.

found at http://wiki.answers.com/Q/How_much_gas_does_the_average_car_gas_tank_hold

to be the best way to probably calculate how much gas is needed to fill the tank. Just figure how how many gallons it took it to get to a certain point.

lets say you have 9 notches on the tank meter and it took 2 gallons to move it up a notch, so that would be 2 gallons per notch, which would mean that it takes 18 gallons to fill up the tank. I don't think you can really figure out the size of the tank since each tank varies.
