1995 15hp 2stroke merc fuel question

[boater1234]

I just got a beautiful 15hp merc and i was wondering if i should get a 3 gallon or 6 gallon tank,how much fuel will this motor use?I do allot of moving around so i can either get a 6 gallon tank or a 3 and keep extra fuel with me like an extra 2 gallon can.I just had a 20hp efi suzuki 4stroke and it sipped gas but it's been a while since i ran a 2stroke so will it be about the same?

At WOT it will suck down about 2 gallons a hour

Throttle the least to maintain good plane, fuel will last much longer than running wot for extended time periods.

Happy Boating
