the tank varies with the pump calibration.
I don't think you empty each tank before each fill up so you trust the number of gallon reading on the gas pump.
Once in a while, I can put in 17 gallons with the tank not totally empty in my 9000. The official tank capacity is only about 17 gallon for that model year of 9000. I don't think my gas tank varies in size 8-), the only think I could think of is the metering wasn't correct.
