How many miles can you drive a Chevy cavalier with the low gas light on?

I own a 2001 Chevy caviler and my gas light came on when the gas gauge needle was just right above the red E line about .5 cm (so not by much,) from when the gas light came on I had just started driving and measured 22 miles that I was able to drive until I reached the closest gas station. By the time I reached the closest gas station the gas gauge needle was only realistically about .2 or .3 cm below the red E line on the gauge. But I would be willing to bet that it could of driven give or take another 5 or so. Hope this helps. Also, unsure if it matters that I was also needing an oil change at the time this took place. If that makes any difference in the distance I was able to drive basically on Empty in my 2001 Chevrolet Cavalier.

How many miles do you have to drive to reset computer on a 2000 Chevy cavaliercomputer on a 2000 Chevy cavalier?
You can't just drive and reset a computer code. First, of course, you have to repair the problem that set the code. If you have an OBD-II scan tool you can reset the light with it. If not, you can unhook the battery cable for a couple of minutes. When you hook the battery back up take the car for a drive...about 10 miles. Preferably with some of that on the highway. That's it. If you still have a check engine light come on you still have a problem to fix.
