Roth oil tank gauge float

Raystewart

Hi folks, I've found just about every answer by searching but can't find anything on this. Just installed a Roth that I picked up and noticed the float on my string type gauge is about 3/4 full of fluid. Is that normal? I expect it to be empty but wonder if it is weighted by fluid. I wonder if empty it would even be heavy enough to extend the string? Thanks in advance for any input.

It's normal.

Thanks for the confirmation, oil delivered today and level is just where I expected so it must be right.
