Jim, I can't say. all I can say is not much. My tractor has tanks on each side with an interconnecting hose and I fill on a grade. I pump from 55 gallon drums. So, it takes awhile to get the fuel up in the neck because I have to stop and wait for it to move across. Together they are 24 gallons. A tank in 7 hours sounds about right.
