We have acquired a second one to take with us when we rent somewhere. It is pretty accurate. We did attach a string to it so it does not disappear in the tank by accident.

Good product, accurate and appreciated quick shipping. Had the same one previously but it got caught on a seat in motion and broke. Stow it where it isnt subject to bending.

The fuel gauge works well. Thanks.
We have tried other means of determining the exact amount of fuel in our 8 C172s. All but one are 26.5 gal tanks. The fuel stop is a MUST. When one is stolen, or dropped into the tank we have a heck of a time finding the culprit. Over all we love them. Not only do we drop a bit of super glue, we have drilled a small hole in the fuel stop and added a metal ID tag with the plane number.
simple measuring method. Plexiglas becomes somewhat milky with time

Ive purchased several of these. I rent my plane and people loose it, but it works great. But do not buy this glass straw without the red fuel stop also at Spruce for about 8 bucks. It helps to keep from dropping the straw into the tank. Ive also learned to put a drop of super glue on the straw where I attach the fuel stop so it stays in place. Lastly, on my plane I hit the rib at the bottom of the tank so the straw says you have a little less gas than actual, which is fine by me, but just put it in at an angle to get all the way to the bottom. The warning about the rib is small but printed on the straw. All in all, I love these things already calibrated for our 52 gal C-172 and will continue to purchase as needed.
