Fuel Burn

Featured Replies

Any help would be great. Recently I noticed that none of my aircraft in FS9 burn any fuel. The fuel load stays at 100%. I have the box "unlimited fuel" unchecked under realism settings. Its probably something obvious but cannot figure out what. Thanks in advance.

You're parking too close to MFS default fuel stations.For a permanent removal of this feature use your FSUIPC:StopAutoFuel=Yes

Thanks for the reply, I always park away from the fuel stations, still have the problem. I will try what you suggested though.

I checked FSUIPC, no stopautofuel feature, where would I find this?

You'll find it in the FSUIPC.INI file in: Program files/Microsoft Games/Flight Simulator9/ModulesJim D.

Is that only available in the Registered Version or is it in the free version also?

Ok, tried that my fuel still stays at 100% regardless. Anymore ideas on why there is no fuel burn within my aircraft.

I don't know as I only have the registered version.Jim D.

What plane are you flying and how long are you flying it? Some planes have Aux tanks but only measure the fuel in the main tanks. So until the fuel from the aux tanks runs dry, your aircraft fuel gauge will read 100%. Just a thought.

Have you tried deleting your fs9.cfg? It'll reset your settings and then go back in and make sure unlimited fuel is unchecked. Besides that, I have no idea.

In your FS Settings/Realism tab make sure under the engines section that Unlimited Fuel is not checked.
