Simple answer is, check it when gauge says full, and see if there is 6 inches of air space at the top.
I agree with the poster that said floating gauges just give you an idea of how much is in the tank (full, half, empty). I'd guess most of them type gauges show empty when there is still 5 or 10 gallons left, and show full when they are 5 or 10 gallons short. As said before, IF gauge was installed right, and completely still functional.
Yep, might have to get on a different plan. Granny probably had a 60 gallon monthly plan that worked for her. Never ran out. Bought oil all year long. Probably figured being on a set monthly amount would even out the fluctuating price, without buying large quantities at a time. Was convenient for her, and never had to watch the highs and lows of the market. Problem with large quantity fill ups, is you might get it filled up at the low, but that fill up might run out when prices hit the high. Then what you gonna do?? Go back to 60 gallons at a time like granny use to do??
Not sure if (4 point 5 acres) is a farm. Sounds like a house with outbuildings and a big yard to me. Just saying.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
