For read access, you will find a level-lbs property also.  But
the only one you are allowed to change is the gallons one.  There
is a density-ppg property there too, for doing conversions.  It
gets set from the FDM with a density appropriate to the fuel in
the tank.

Here's the complete "documentation" as it appears at the top of
fuel.nas:

# Properties under /consumables/fuel/tank[n]:
# + level-gal_us    - Current fuel load.  Can be set by user code.
# + level-lbs       - OUTPUT ONLY property, do not try to set
# + selected        - boolean indicating tank selection.
# + density-ppg     - Fuel density, in lbs/gallon.
# + capacity-gal_us - Tank capacity
#
# Properties under /engines/engine[n]:
# + fuel-consumed-lbs - Output from the FDM, zeroed by this script
# + out-of-fuel       - boolean, set by this code.
