My speedometer cable broke, how can I fix it, also where can I find the right one? Can do anybody no out there? Or can I use a GPS?

As to the speedometer, replace the cable. As to the GPS, I don't know anything about your abilities.

My GPS works pretty good at telling me my current speed.. I can have a display with the current speed in the lower right side, and also a close estimate of the street's speed limit (that is normally within about 10 MPH of the posted speed limit, it might have changed since the GPS was set up and programmed, or the GPS Might have had wrong information all along, or many smaller streets never have the speed programmed for them.).

As for the tank size, you can measure and calculate 8 gallons per cubic foot, and get close to the right size.

The fresh water you can measure the number of 5 gallon tanks it will require to fill the tank outside water filler with a siphon and 5 gallon bucket, or funnel and 1 gallon container. Or estimate it by setting the fresh water hose to a certain speed, time how long it takes to fill a 1 gallon container (setting it slow enough that it should take 10 - 15 seconds per gallon) then time the fill. If the hose filled the 1 gallon tank in 15 seconds, and then the total tank in 8 minutes - X 4 gallons per minute, you will get a good guess at it's capacity.
