Perhaps the lower density is affecting the flow sensor.>> Brent, did you read in Sport Aviation last month, or maybe it was this month, in the Letters section, the letter discussing the fact that Avgas actually weighs more than 6 lb/gal? The letter is fairly detailed, and comes to the conclusion that it weighs 6.2 lb/gal (I think it was 6.2 ). Who's right? Mike Reinath Std.
