New 182 problem. Vanishing fuel!

Post by nightowl4903 »

Engine refuses to start. I check fuel and payload. Tanks are empty. I add 44 gal. per tank to bring fuel to 100%. I return to the cockpit. Engine refuses to start. I check fuel and payload. Tanks are empty. I've tried refueling and exiting and restarting FSX. Even tried a computer restart. fuel still vanishes. I am starting to have second thoughts about my purchase.

Are you using the simulator fuel and payload management menu or the A2A fuel and payload management window (opened via shift-4)?

Before you run into more issues, have you had a look at the manual?
