What I am reporting is nothing to do with editing the amount of fuel. It is to do with the fact that when the fuel selector is set to “both”, then surely fuel should be consumed from both tanks not just the right hand one?

Just tested. If I manually set the fuel selector to “left” then it does use fuel from the left hand tank.
