The capacity of the tank - more than half the time the person filling the tank is thrown off a bit by how small it is. I often get some varient of "Hey, it's only taking about 2 gallons. Either you were practically full already, or there's something wrong." Taking two gallons actually means I was getting fairly close to empty. (The tank on my '88 is 3.3 gallons, so its "80% fill" capacity is 2.6 gallons; yours is probably the same or similar.) -Steven Sittser |
