Re calibration

I was planning on doing this calibration. I find I am off about 6-7% over 500 gallons (same on each engine). There is a 1.5-2% difference between front and back engine.

When I go to add 120 gallons I can't get all the fuel in. This gets frustrating when you are running close to gross weight .... 180 lbs (or more) than requred. This is the error I need to correct. I am usually fighting a gross weight take-off.

Depends which error you can live with; too much weight or not enough fuel..........

I have the shadin interfaced to the kln90B which gives to fuel totals for EACH engine and alternate reserves if put in your flight planned route. Works very well.

The sensor values (K factor) are the same for each sensor which leads me to believe the sensor is not calibrated to a finite value.
