I found that the only difference (in most cases) in the 15 and 19 gallon tanks is the length of the vent tube next to the filler tube. I thought I had a 15 gallon tank and after a little research and replacing the fuel pump, I cut the vent tube to within 1.5" of the tank entrance and I now can...

Good to know, thanks!
