I think if the fuel is down a bit in the header (fuselage) tank and you fuel it first, even if you overfill it, the excess fuel in the header tank will drain down to the wing tanks fast enough for you to always be able then to top off the wing tanks without a problem. Bart

Your suggestion squares well with what I had read earlier. I guess the trick is knowing when to stop pumping fuel into the middle tank before you start fueling the wing tanks. As I understand this if you keep pumping into the main it will simply overflow into the wing tanks anyway. So a gallon or so in them main, then start fueling the wing tanks and leave an inch of space between the fuel and the cap. At least that's kinda what I'm getting out of this long thread. Thanks Steve
