I am with Glenn. I noticed that the vents in the caps are important. They slightly pressurize the tank system inflight. If only one cap has an open vent hole, the tank will be emptied but the resulting pressure differential could hinder the second tank to empty.

This time the left tank refused to fill the header so when the right tank finished its job the header tank started to go down. There was some tension in the cockpit as we watched this. I'm thinking a blockage in the line between the left and right tank prevented the transfer of fuel to the right tank and then to the header. The three fuel gauges were all set properly. Am I on the right track? Mac McMahon N94184 VKX Friendly, MD _________________________________________________________________ Your E-mail and More On-the-Go.
