English term or phrase: time to empty
I understand time to empty, as in time before fuel tank is empty, though I am confused by the notion of "time" for a fuel tank on a tractor (John Deere Agriculture)...

And the Hours tab allow operators to select measurements including Instantaneous Fuel per Hour, Instantaneous Fuel per Area, ***Time to Empty***, and Instantaneous Productivity
