Another fuel tank question

[Essness]

I have a 2014 Raptor 27FS I'm supposed to have a 30 gallon tank. When I put 15 gallons of gas in it the guage shows full?
I'm wondering if I have a 15 gallon and not 30 gallon as advertised??

Is it possible that you have two tanks? I know they put two on some models.

I just read their specs on the site. It doesn't appear to have 2.

I can see the tank, I just cant tell if its 30 or 15??

Ours on the fuzion 310 still had stickers on both of the tanks that said 30gal each.

just bought a raptot 297se it said there was a 30 gal tank on it but when i filled it up could only get 20 gal in gauge says just short of full would love to know the true answer to this one as some of you have different sizes

Our Raptor 384pk has 2 30 gallon tanks.

And there it is, a big white sticker on very black background that says it's a 30 gallon tank

Odd that the guage reads full at 15 gallons though

I'll add it to my warranty list.

Our 381lev has 2 tanks. 30gl each. I encountered the same problem. 3 guages later and many trips to the dealer yielded a slightly better reading. its not accurate as it should be when you dish out the $$$ for these rigs. I just fill it till the fuel nozzle shuts off. Its a real PITA I hope you have better luck than I did.

the fuel gage that is fill er up the generator will use 10 - 15 gallons a day

I have a '14 297SE and this was one of my first questions after taking the trailer out for the first time. The fuel gauge definitely wasn't accurate when you think about it being a 30g tank. I can't remember what the dealer's answer was to my question about that but it was around the fact that they don't want you to run out of fuel to fill your ATV's so it reads lower than what it actually is. I would think it would be the opposite, I would rather not run out of fuel to my generator vs. my ATV fuel tank. The 297SE has one 30g fuel tank and uses this for both the generator and the ATV units.

In other words, just bc it says half full doesn't mean it only has 15g of fuel in it. It actually has more.

I just make sure it's always full when I know I'm going to be using the generator or the fuel station.

Same here

My 2013 Fuzion 342 was advertised as (2) 30 gal tanks but The fuel station will take 30 gals and the generator tank only takes roughly 18

This has me curious now, think i will go out and measure the tanks and do the conversion to volume

Seems this is an ongoing saga not only can I not get ore than about 15 gallons in the 30 gallon tank, I smelled gasoline the other day and loosened the cap only to have it spit a whole bunch of gas at me an all over the driveway.
Now I cant get the generator to stay running........... if I can get it to start.

I'm open to all suggestions..........

The trailer is level on the driveway. I have about 16 hours on the generator already so, it did work before. It would appear to me that the tank is vapor locking?
