fuel. Be sure you run only ONE engine — the engine connected
to your fuel flow.
9. Fill up your tank again, noting how much fuel you added to the tank.
Compare that number to the Fuel Used figure displayed on the page
you customized. If the amount of fuel you added to the tank and the
fuel used figure are off by more than 3 percent, we recommend the fuel
flow be calibrated.

You must use the gauge's Fill Tank command when filling your fuel
tank to keep the fuel flow updated with correct information on the
amount of fuel in the tank.
