Hi folks, I was delighted to get those dipstick data because I so far couldn`t make one. Now i can. For those of you who have a metric, meaning liter display on their fuel gauges (I have) here is a conversion of the data to ltr / cm. It`s calculated by applying pure math to Nick`s table so it is just as correct - as long as I didn`t make any calculation mistakes! ** Left Tank Right Tank* * **12 l**1,0cm **12 l**0,7cm 24 l 3,4cm 24 l 4,0cm 36 l 6,4cm 36 l 7,7cm 48 l 9,7cm 48 l 11,4cm You might notice that the markings are higher on the right tank stick side on all markings except for the 12l mark which is lower. Nick and Dennis , is there possibly something wrong? Grey skies where they should be blue ( well, here in Hessen, anyway. Late April still on.)

Maybe Nick can look at them and see if he made a mistake when he sent them to me. Regards, Dennis W.
