The 172 is a JSBSim aircraft, so Jon or one of the JSB crew will have to provide specifics about this particular situation. But for YASim aircraft (really: users of the Nasal fuel system), this will not work. You can set the current fuel only using the level-lbs properties. The -gal_us and -norm are output-only convenience properties that may be useful to panel code. Setting them is a noop; their values will be clobbered by the FDM. If I remember correctly, JSBSim does not currently support setting fuel state through the property system. Instead, since you are in C++, you should be able to find an interface there.
