If its a 4x4 its 18.2 gallons. If its a 4x2 it could be 16.5 or 18.2 gallons

How empty are you taking it because i have a 18 gallon tank on my 95 and if i fill it up as soon as it hits the red i only get about 14 gallons in because there is some leeway there. Also there's a possibility of a malfunctioning gauge
