we just purchased my wife's grandparents farm (4.5 acres with the house and barns)
The house is heated with fuel oil.
Question; the tank is probably a 275gal as that is typical. It has a floating type gage in the top. Does anyone know if those gages account for the air space that the fuel oil guys are supposed to leave (6 inches??) they filled up the other day as my wife's grandmother was on an automatic plan and they put 60 gallons in so i need to call and change that over. on Sunday I checked and the tank gage showed right around 3/4. i know they aren't a precision device but probably is reasonably close. at 3/4 tank that would be 206 gallons. they put in 60 gal so 266 in the tank now. with it getting warmer and the heat being set on 50 (we don't live there at the moment) I figured they would not need to come out for some time so i'm surprised they got that much in it. I am also suspicious that they wanted to fill it up before the prices go down.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
