Per the FARs, your gauges were functional. The only requirement is that
when the tanks are empty, the gauges read empty.


That's not true. The FARs require that the gauges "show the quantity of fuel
in each tank". If that gauge reads 1/4 tank when the tank is full, it's not
showing the quantity in the tank.

They say nothing's certain except death and taxes. The thing is, death
doesn't get worse every time Congress goes into session.
