I saved it the last time Old Magnet posted it. I have enough storage allotment to post it and leave it up for the forseeable future.
Thanks Jim--i printed it out while its still up!!
Is the chart for the seat or fender tank? Seat tank I think,
Chart has both...
Thanks guys, I appreciate your help very much! John
Hi Old Magnet, you mentioned that the chart has "both" gauges in response to Stephen's question about whether the chart is for the seat tank or the fender tank. I was under the impression that there had been two sizes of seat tank (before/after 5U13237) and that the two versions on your chart were for 20 and the 26 gal versions of the seat tank. Is it the case that one of them is actually for the fender tank? I was surprised because I didn't think the fender tank was 20+ inches deep but to be honest I haven't looked at one up close.
Cheers,
Neil

Neil, you have read between my lines, thanks for clarifying my statement
I just measured the stick on 5U 8130 with fender tank, no part number noted. The short part was 2" & long part 13".
Gallons measured from the crook is as follows:
1"=20gal
2 1/2"= 18gal
4 9/16"=15gal
6 3/8"=12gal
8 1/16"=9gal
9 13/16=6gal
11 5/8"=3gal
Now someone please make a spiffy drawing & we can all save a copy
Our channel highlights machines from the earliest Holt and Best track-type tractors, equipment from the start of Caterpillar in 1925, up to units built in the mid-1960s.
