Fuel Tank capacities

how does one guess at the capacity of these two tanks? Reggie

Guessing in good.. Photo 004 = 48 gal Photo 003 = 24 gal That would be if you could get them "full" with no air space 1" of air space is almost 3-5 gal per tank You would probably be good to guess at 20 and 40 gal From: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com [mailto:Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of r good Sent: Saturday, February 13, 2010 6:14 PM To: ca… [at] yahoogroups.com Subject: [Cal_Boats] Fuel Tank capacities [3 Attachments] [Attachment(s) from r good included below] how does one guess at the capacity of these two tanks?

You could calculate the volume pretty easily, break up each tank in sections and multiply your H x W x L and remember to divide your triangular sections by half, add them all together and you should get a pretty accurate value in terms of in^3, then covert it to gallons.

Ah yes, my good friend Frans is one of those very smart schooled individuals who is ALSO gifted with a lot of good red neck common sense. :-) Gregg From: Frans Sell <fr… [at] yahoo.com> To: Ca… [at] yahoogroups.com Sent: Sat, Feb 13, 2010 5:04 pm Subject: Re: [Cal_Boats] Fuel Tank capacities You could calculate the volume pretty easily, break up each tank in sections and multiply your H x W x L and remember to divide your triangular sections by half, add them all together and you should get a pretty accurate value in terms of in^3, then covert it to gallons.

Thank you Gregg, the redneck maintenance practices are often closely tied with budgetary constraints. Plus sometimes they're just a lot of fun!
