  • Does anyone have dimensions, preferably calibrated in liters, for a wing =
    tank dipstick?
    I get a little nervous just trusting the gauges.

    Sporty's sells a universal disptick kit. Inexpensive and easy to use after
    the initial calibration run.

    I have a tank in my hanger an could measure it if anyone wants me to, but I
    don't think that this is what is required since the tank sits at a variable
    angle when on the plane is on the ground plus there is the problem of
    unusable fuel.

    I suggest dip sticks are made personally with the plane always in the same
    place

    regards

    Ben
