Windshield Washer Question

Filled the washer myself for the first time today. They really have that thing buried. It took a whole gallon of fluid and I do not believe it is totally full. Anyone know what the capacity of that container is??

Thaks Greg, it sure is big!! I would also not like to have to replace the tank as it seems really buried and looks like lots of stuff will have to come off to get to it.

It may be more accessible from the bottom.

I replaced the tank on my 163. I did it, but many four-letter words were said! It is REALLY big. And REALLY tight.
