Welcome to iBoats . . .

There should be access to the top of the fuel tank, perhaps via a hatch in the ski-locker or the cockpit sole. On the top of the tank near the fuel sender, there should be a certification label for the tank, which will include the capacity of the tank.

90% of the time, a fuel gauge not reading is corrosion under the dash or on the pink wire.

troubleshoot before spending money

Also loose wires and or corrosion or gunk creating a poor connection right at the sender unit on top of the tank. Had to cleanup many over my years of boating.
