Default Question: '84 Fuel tank depth

Hi,

I'm looking to order a Direct Site Read Gauge for my fuel tank this year (I couldn't get a new sending unit to work with the fuel gauge.)

Does anyone know the depth of the fuel tank for an '84 V20? I know I could measure it easily, but she's all covered up for the winter.

Thanks

think its around 11.5 inches. doing this from memory. should be able to do a search and find it. also thought somebody put it in the links section.

best thing to do is track your mileage with your gps. with a 150 merc, your going to get around 2 mpg. top your tank off, reset your trip on gps. when you get 30 40 miles on it. top off tank again. that will tell you your fuel burn.
