Brief Description: Fueling Aircraft and Calibrating Fuel Sendors
Pulled the aircraft out of the hanger and got it set up on the metal table, adjusting a bit to get the airframe as in level flight. The next part was weirdly fun, that is calling the FBO and telling them I need the fuel truck for 20 minutes or so to perform fuel tank/sender calibration. I have not order fuel in several years! Started with the left tank, putting one gallon in the tank, and then recording in the G3X. Why one gallon, that's the unusable fuel per spec. Added another five gallons and set the fuel sender calibration at 6, Proceeded with added 5 gallons and setting until the tank was full at 21 gallons.
Repeated the exact same process with the right fuel tank.
The left tank fuel connector was dripping a bit, re-torqued and it stopped. No issues with the right tank or connector, and no issues with inside the aircraft thankfully. It was a hot day, the fuel vents began to drip a bit so I know they work. Waited a while for the venting to stop before pulling the aircraft back into the hanger.
At some point I need to perform the 2nd pass where the aircraft tailwheel is on the ground.
