I would like to know what a litre of diesel weighs ..... I am trying to ascertain my "revised tare weight" of the Chevy now that I have most of the permanent accessories ? attached. i.e. Canopy, bullbar, winch, steps, long range tanks, drawers, etc.
It is easier to fill my diesel tank and then subtract the total weight of the full tank as I am worried about running the fuel level too low.
