Ed, We installed them in both wing tanks and they are fantastic. For the first couple of flights I used the "stick" to insure accuracy and it was perfect. Great improvement to checking fuel especially when I am so fuel critical, especially with hot weather coming. I did notice you have to get a fast reading as the fuel evaporates rather quickly as soon as the air hits it.
I have a 500 lb payload so with my weight of 230 and my wife ( won'r dare mention her weight as she also reads these threads) I still have enough fuel for a 4 hour flight. At my age other parts of the body demand rest stops after that. Great idea. Think I will go flying. Perfect excuse, as if Coupe drivers need one, to check out the " Little Dipper".
