Full....... 10ohms
3/4....... 25ohms
1/2....... 38ohms
1/4....... 57ohms
Empty... 80ohms

This is + and -. A few ohms either way won't change it much.

My one maual says 10 imperial gallons, 45.5 liters, 0r, 12 U.S. gallons

I know I have actually measured putting 44 litres into mine, with a graduated beaker.

10.5g is the most I've added at a fill. I've read 11 gal., I guess I was really low that day.
