Has anyone been able to solve the problem with the bouncing fuel gage? 



Mine really bothers me with the bouncing between 3/4 and 1/4.  



Thanks,

Larry, 



I solved the problem by only going on short flights and keeping the fuel tank full..   Just joking... Mine does the same thing... I do have a personal rule that the plane does not take off unless you can touch the fuel with your finger in the tank... I use 2.5 hours as my fuel (and bladder) stop time... Have gone 3 hours but try to stay around 2.5..



Happy flying, Brian

Mine doesn't bounce, but it does read too high.  Doesn't really matter since the GPS blocks my view of the gauge so I usually don't know what it's reading.  I do get a look at it now and then just in case I have a big fuel leak.

  

 I just plan 2 hour legs, which gives me a nice reserve for headwinds, runway closures or other surprises.  So far 2.6 is my longest flight in a 2000.  That was long enough.  (after that one I installed temperfoam in the seat bottom)

I Always watch the clock and not the fuel gage.  I figure fuel for 3.0hrs, 2.5hrs of flying w/.5hr reserve.  I also have a wedge that I put under the left main to make sure I get a full full load.
