How do you folks determine fuel levels, without remembering them from the previous outting? I do not know how to make it display while the engine is not running

You should be able to just turn the key on with out starting the motor and look at your gauges. Thats how mine is it shouldn't have to be running.
On the monitor I have, it has gallons used.. So if I fill up I know what is left all the time.
Other then that I look at the tank
Bobby:
Is your Smartcraft system set up with a FUEL/OIL level Harness (i.e.: Fuel level is displayed on Smartcraft)?
If so.... simply turn the key to the ON position, and select Fuel Level display in your Smartcraft Instrument.
Keep in mind- if utilizing Smartcraft Fuel Level while FILLING the tank- the display is dampened (may not respond for 30-60 seconds).
