Welcome to Oldgas. In order for you to get any feedback on an item you will always want to post a picture of what you are asking about. There are many versions of about everything in our hobby and less common things like the unit you are asking about are hard to comment on without a picture. There is a tutorial on how to post pictures in the forum list....GB

If you can determine a Model Number, I might have some literature on the unit. I have a lot more of Bowser literature than is shown on this page, but I can't change anything, I cannot delete anything and I can add anything to my website. Microsoft quit supporting the program. Am presently building a new website.

I think that means "one who has to have a 1903 bowser self measuring oil storage unit, and will pay anything to get one"

Why is it that everyone who uses a phone to take a picture lays on the ground to take a picture that is laying on the ground. My Nikon takes pictures that shows the subject where you can read it.

Suggestion, post a pictures then click on the preview button (lower left) if it is sideways, go back to the picture and correct it.

Jack,
Just so you know, I have used that preview button before to try and look at pics before I post them. It doesn't work for me....the pictures never show up. I just have to click "submit" and if the picture doesn't look correct I edit the pic and repost. Maybe it's a problem with my browser version or some preference I haven't set but it doesn't work for me.

The Preview feature does not show images uploaded with File Manager. It does say that in the instructions.
http://www.oldgas.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=129148
Follow those instructions and images should show up.

You can turn images right side up using the procedure in this topic:
