Yesterday I got stuck on the water--out of fuel
Luckily it was close to the dock, and a friendly boater gave me a tow..
I usually always fill up the tank before I head out, but yesterday i didnt, dont know why, I just didnt...
I didnt know my gauge/sender was not working since I always filled up the tank, so you can say yesterdays insidents were somewhat of a good thing!!
My question is if there is a way to test to find out which part is bad?
While im at it, replacing senders or gauges, I believe the fuel tank was replaced by the prior owner, and installed a bigger tank..how do I determine how much fuel it holds, and how do I get the correct parts for the tank? There is no writting on the tank to determine what it is.. Its an aluminum tank, rectangle in shape..
TIA
