Can anyone tell me how much gas(US or Imperial gallons or liters ) my 1951 1300 will hold ? I am in the process of fixing the gas gage and want to know approxamently what my range is when I get my mileage figured out . Also do I need to install a resistor to drop my converted 12 volt system to 6 volt for this gage ? Thanks for any help.
