April 26, 20197 yr Does this switch really work? Has it ever worked? No matter if I select "auto", I still get a indication on the annunciator panel that I have a fuel imbalance, so I have to manually switch to the opposite tank. Stew "Different dog, different fleas"
April 26, 20197 yr I don't think that this switch was ever operational. AFAIK, if you load the plane and you don't touch the fuel selector it will default to 'both' and hence no imbalance.

I flew this bird in FSX a couple of years ago (have since switched over to P3D), and I seem to remember this to be the case, now that you mention it. Thanks again.

April 26, 20197 yr The annoyance of remembering to switch tanks is why I fly Cessna, IRL. It's one of the main reasons I won't ever own a Piper product. But with Carenado's programming glitch, I can fly them virtually without being bothered. 🙂

In fact there is no provision to switching tanks at all. Frankly, I like the Cheyenne better than this Malibu anyway. Stew "Different dog, different fleas"
