THE FUEL SELECTOR VALVE WAS POSITIONED ON THE LEFT TANK. THE LEFT TANK WAS FOUND TO BE EMPTY AND THE RIGHT TANK WAS FULL. THE ACFT HAS 2 FUEL TANKS, EACH HOLDS 46 GALS (44 USABLE).

PERFORMANCE CHART FOR 8000 FOOT PRESSURE ALT GIVES A NUMBER OF POWER SETTINGS THAT WILL YIELD AVERAGE FUEL CONSUMPTION RATES BETWEEN 10.3 AND 17.8 GPH AND AVERAGE TRUE AIRSPEED BETWEEN 111 AND 151 KTS.
