Default plastic tanks - factory

I have a plastic gas tank I removed from my 85 Cj7. This is a factory tank -
I know because I saw the factory markings. Does anyone know what years had
the plastic tank from the factory and exactly how many gallons it holds? (I
know it's at least 20 gallons)

I think they made them from 82 to 86 but could be off on that. They are
supposed to be 20 US gallons or 76 liters if I remember right.

Although there is an Esso station close to me that I have managed to
'drive' to and still get 78+ liters in mine.... And I can't fill the
filler hose either so the gas didn't go there....
