Has anyone installed a gauge so you can check the level of fuel remaining in the TH tank. Mine is a Dutchmen 35SRV Victory Lane with a 35 gallon plastic tank in the back.

I had one on a KZ Sportsman but it was useless. It never read anything but Empty. I hope you install a better one than that. LOL>....

If your tank does not currently have a float/sender unit installed you need to see if it has a mounting hole for it. Call dutchman and ask or drop the tank and see what you got, you will probably need to do that anyway to wire it, there might be room to get your hand above it to check. The gauge and sender must be the same OHM range to read correctly, there are lots of different ones make sure they match. If dutchman cant help call the tank company. I just installed a gen with a fuel tank and gauge last weekend on my fifth wheel trailer. Got all the fuel system parts from aerotank so it all matched up, made it pretty easy and works great. Have fun.
