only 15 gallons go in...

Letting it run out (with spare gas in a can in the bed) is the correct way to determine the visual characteristics of the gauge when it's time to get more

I actually remember filling up both tanks in my '68 CS (in cab and saddle) for around $30.00...
that's was about 43 gal when empty... that would be around $120 now...
The last time I filled up just the saddle tank it was just over $80 ...
I usually just put $20 in it at a time, unless I'm actually going somewhere with the camper...
I use my Caravan for pretty much everything else.

Anyone else remember when $10 would buy a full tank of gas, a gallon of oil (Ol' Smokey, a '59 Ford, had really bad rings) a case of beer and a bottle of Boone's Farm (in any flavor)???
You could cruise all night, and the alcohol always ran out before the gas did...

But no flicking your cigarette ashes out the door, .

Woman uses lighter to check gas can level, blows up car

Mine does the same thing, kaptnkaos. Never above 3/4 full.

I've tried three different sending units, so I'm pretty sure it's the voltage regulator for the dash.

Funny how many of us use "10 MPG" as our "gauge"...

Mine does the 3/4 thing too, but I dream of 10mpg.

Yeah Bobby... Why not, it all comes up the same any way...
We mostly just got it for the girls
