Pretty sure by the length of the sending unit it goes to the bottom of the tank. Tank is around 12 inches deep..

If you put in 80 liters, and there is roughly 4 liters per gal. that would be 20 gal and you said there was some in it already.

Guess you'll know more when you start driving it.

I'll crawl under it tomorrow with a tape measure, if it ends up being 15 inches deep I'll know I have a 33 gal, if it's 12 inches it's a 25 gal

You bought a 25.5 but they picked a 33.
