[1.0.6] Tank 3 not feeding fuel properly leading to imbalances

Featured Replies

See attached screenshot.

This was after running unattended at cruise for nearly 4 hours with all crossfeeds open and all pumps on. I am not using the PFD fuel balance helper (which also appears to not be working correctly, but that's a topic for a different post).

In my screenshot I've turned all pumps off but the tank 3 and 2R pumps to even out first the small imbalance in 2R and then I will try to burn tank 3 down.

With your initial fuel load, you should have been running Tank to Engine with your crossfeeds closed. With all crossfeed valves open and all pumps on, you're basically seeing which pumps have the higher output...in this case, Tank 1 pumps. That's why you have an imbalance of 4,500 lbs between tanks 1 and 3.
