I wasn't saying that's exactly what it weighs. It's just the system I use if I am close on weight. Hasn't failed me yet.

 

Are looking for a load pattern for your setup? What kind of tanks are you pulling and what size are your compartments. I haul super B two trailers 5 compartments. 63,500kg I load around 56,000 litres "gas"
Diesel is about 1000 litres less per compartment.

 

Diesel can actually vary from 7 pounds to 7.5 pounds. My gas is a few ppm/cu. ft. heavier than air.

 

And to really start a lively conversation, when I'm watching my weight on my axles, I use on average 7.75 lbs per gallon, then use 75% for weight on my drives and 25% of the weight on my steer. There now, debate the night away.

 

I think a pound of gas is lighter than a pound of diesel.

 

The weight of gasoline and diesel depends on the density or temperature. That's why gasoline is sold to the station at the net price and not the gross. At 60° gasoline is around 6.3lbs. I didn't messed with diesel but it's all on the net.
