About the tank size,mine has the 15 gallon,and it
seems like the mileage is poor,but I have never done
the math to verify it.I`m sure it would seem better
with the 22 gallon as far as less movement of the
guage over time. (That`s what I meant.) I
would,however,much rather pay for a full tank of gas
with my small gas tank! So I guess it evens out.
