The pre-92 or '93 models had two fuel tanks - a 15 gallon in the front (well, midships) and 22 gallon tank in the rear. You should have both...if one is missing you're not going to have much range.

There should be a switch on the bottom of the dash, to the left of the steering wheel, to select between them.

Thanks for the help...............I do not have any manuals on the 1990 so your assistance is appreciated.
