Hi does anyone know the amount of fuel that the haynes fuel tank can take the one you make from the book
(17.1 cm x 25.1 cm x 61.0 cm) x .001 = 26.182 litres
26.182 litres = 6.9 US gallons = 5.8 Imp. gallons

Volume of a Rectangular cuboid is length x width x height(x.001 to convert to litres). Close enough

Hi Paul
I averaged the book size tank to 610mm X 251mm X 171mm
Multiply them all together
610 x 251 x 171 = 26181810 square mm's, knock off the last 5 digits & you are left with 2618
This equates to 26.18 litres
There are plenty of handy conversion charts n gadgets on the net :)
