Jack,  I wanted to ask a question to your question, as Univar and Skyport
do not
sell or support any wing tank fuel gauge any longer why not modify a fuel
gauge
that will give a electrically generated signal that you can place a gauge
on the
insturment panel?  (Like a Cessna 150 gauge)  I am sure that someone has
done it.
