Record the hours on your engines when you fill. Next time you think about filling, check the hour meters, note the addition of hours since the last fill, multiply by the consumption rate, gals/hr. Fill, record, calculate. Unless you consumption is wildly erratic, your average consumption per hour won't change. Record every time you fill, keep track, and never again have a concern about finding an accurate dipstick.
