anyone have the conversion for lenth 54" x 29" wide x 1" deep

When I ran out of fuel(long story) I refilled my boat on the trailer and put 35 gallons in it but after pulling the cover the tank says 47 gallons so I pulled my pick up tube out and it is a solid 1" from the bottom of the tank not including the "v" so I am loosing 1.5 " of capacity from my tank ,right?

6.78 gal. i think

1 u.s.gal = 231 cu in.

56 x 29 x1 =1566 cu in divided by 231 =6.78

Answer: 1566 cu. in. = 6.77922 gallons (US Liquid)

Put marbles in it...raise the usable:banghead

I have the same issue and I was thinking of puting some sugar is the tank to raise the level........

think it wil work

anyways I think you want a small portion of the tank that cant be picked up by the line so the crap that settles to the botom of the tank dosnt get picked up as much... just a thought

The bottom of the pick up tube has a 1/2" "v" cut in it to allow for separation from the sediment. Also have a fuel water separator/filter that I change regularly and keep an extra on the boat.

Sam, do you have a H2O seperator installed, if not install one. If you extend the tube or not.
