83 fuel tanks

I just purchased a 83 f-150 with 302 auto overdrive long bed with 2 gas tanks, the gauge was on emty on rear tank and died so switch to front showed emty too. Just barly made to the station it when it died I was out, so I put $5.00 worth of gas in the front tank when I start out the gauge showed full. I've drove about 20 miles and the gauge still shows full.
What size are my gas tanks, front and rear. Is the front just a researve?

Both tanks should be 15.8 Imperial gallons (19 US gal or 71 Liters).
