Number of Hours:  5.50
Manual Reference:  PAP, 46
Brief Description:  Drained fuel, repositioned fuel line

PAP G8-1, SV Installation Guide: The fuel level on the Skyview EFIS has been showing empty with a "CAL?" at the fuel bar. I thought I had calibrated the fuel system by adding fuel in the Engine Page. It turns out I have to go to SETUP-->Hardware Calibration-->EMS Calibration to do the calibration correctly. So, I had to empty the fuel tank which took a while. The battery got low after draining a few gallons and I had to manually drain more than 10 gallons. I use a hand pump to drain fuel from the fitting at the gascolator. After the fuel tank was emptied I pulled the plane over 2 inch blocks of wood in prepartion for fuel calibration which I'll do tomorrow.

46-11: Repositioned the VA-216 Fuel Return Line that connects to the Fuel Pressure Sensor because the throttle cable nut stop at the left carburetor was hitting it.

Shortened the screw that fixes the wire in the cable nut stop to reduce chances of binding or cutting the skin during maintenance.
