Have you got a new tank and are wondering how many gallons it will hold? Length in inches x Width in inches x Height in inches divided by 231 = gallons capacity. Or you can click right here and fill in the blanks to get capacity. One cu. ft. = approx. 7 gallons. Gasoline weighs 7 lbs. per gallon while water weighs 8 lbs. per gallon.
Always remember to properly vent and attach a ground wire to all fuel tanks.
Fuel pickup inside of tank should be at least an inch above bottom of tank to decrease the chance of pumping water or trash into carburetors.
