OS 120 Axs in a ME 262

I am installing 2 os 120 axs in my Saita Me262. I am looking for the fuel consumption rate for these engines. Iwant roughly a 15 minute run and need to size the fuel tank accordingly. Thanks

Depending upon throttle setting, you'll need a 16 ounce or larger tank. At full throttle, you'll likely need a 20-24 ounce tank. We don't have specific numbers. Just changing the propeller can vary the full-throttle fuel consumption quite a bit.
