Site tube fuel measurrement

Post by meridian »

My 36’ has 2 fuel tanks holding 300 gal. The top half (12in) of each tank is 100 gal. Using a small ruler and attaching to the site tube, I can now get a very accurate usage measurement, ½” = 4 gal. We are leaving for the Loop in 3 weeks so I should be able to quickly get usage based on different RPM’s. I'll post the results.
