I found out the weight of the gas
1 gallon of water equals 8.33 lbs.
1 gallon of gasoline equals 5.8 to 6.5 lbs. depending on grade ect. but averafe will be arround 6.25lbs so for a 16gal tank like mine it would weigh 100lbs and 112.5 for an 18gal tank.
These numbers are from the net I would have done the conversion on my own but it is snowing and my chemistery book is in my trunk.

Thanks phantom. I'll see if I can get more traction once the suspension on the car is fixed. The car has had some float to it for a while, but the struts decided to take a dump this week. Now I have an excuse to go for a sportier suspension. :P
