Abstract
A fully adjustable liquid tank float incorporates a float for use for gauging the amount of fuel or other liquid contained within a storage tank, the float being connectable to an adjustable lateral arm, which pivotally connects to a vertical structure, which secures to an adaptor that is mounted onto the top of the storage tank. The adaptor connects a transparent housing, which discloses an indicator of the amount of fuel remaining in the tank. The vertical structure is likewise adjustable in length. A flexible linkage connects with the indicator, and is adjustably secured with the lateral arm, to provide for a precise indication as to when the tank is full, partially full, or approaching empty.
