  • either measuer it or carry some gas with you, run it empty and then fill it all the way up. prepare yourself for the bill though!
  • There should be a label on the Tank, however it is likely either 90 or 100 US Gallons. Both sizes were used back then on that size rig.
    Is it on a Deere Chassis ?
  • I could bring my 96 Southwind to your house and we could transfer all the fuel from your rig into mine. Then you could go fill yours and know how much it holds. :B
    My 96 holds 100 gallons in the fuel tank, but that doesn't really help you.
    If you can get the dimensions of the tank, you can use The RV Doctors Formula to calculate the tank capacity.
