|
|
After a one hour and a half flight, I tried to refuel the plane, but I wasn't able to add more than 8 liters. One hour later, I was able to refuel 16 liters more.
I don't understand the problem, tank air vent looks OK, has anyone experienced this pb ? how is it possible ?
It's quite worrying as the sight gauge is not reliable...
thank's if you have informations

You don't say how your vents are connected, but if gasoline
enters the sight tube vent at its connection to the filler, and there
there is alocal low spot in the vent tubing, you will get an air lock
at the top of the sight gauge which will make the meniscus in the
sight tube read too low.
