I have a 2006 Champion 210 elite. I bought it used and it didn't come with a manual. Everything I can find says it holds 50 gallons but I can only get it to hold 25. Is there a fuel tank switch somewhere that I'm not seeing?

Did you drain the tank or run out while running?

It will hold 50 and I do not believe it has a switch. My 06 206 has a 50 gallon tank

I have 2005 198 elite that holds 50 in a single tank. It's under the seats,not in the rear.So no switch on mine.

Ive never ran it till it ran dry, but it showed a quarter tank and it only accepted about 20. 10 gallons usually puts it about half. I bought it as a 2006 210 elite, however the sticker on the side only says 210. No elite next to it. I think I got stuck with an odd ball.

The gas guages on Champions ,Are not the most accurate.With this ethanol,I usually put in 10 or 20 at a time.

When mine is on half a tank I can put any where from 15-24 gallons in it so it is not very accurate at all.

That's cost effective

I've got an 04 187 and the gas gauge is not accurate. It always shows less gas than it really has. Mine has a 45 gal tank.
