Piper Arrow IV Fuel

Does anyone know how much fuel there is in each tank when filled to the tabs in an Arrow IV? Cant seem to find a figure and I havnt got an AFM with me!

Many thanks to anyone who knows the answer!

If you are in a hurry for the information and need to guess the figure, won't it be the same as the similar winged PA28 -161. It's the wing form that dictates the fuel quantity? The 161, if memory serves, had USg 50 of which USg 48 was useable, so one would estimate USg20 to each step in a typical 161 wing?
Hope that sounds about right and is of some use.

Comanche250,

I've just checked my copy of the manual. Total useable 72 gals. To the tabs 50 gals. useable (25 gals a side).

All the best.
