I'll second that.  In regards to the fuel probes, the question was "what
about the top 2 1/2 inches?"  The answer has to be "it won't measure fuel
there."  How much fuel are we talking about?  In my case I have an ES with 5
fuel bays, but the fuel probe only goes out to the end of the 4th bay.
Precise measurement of the fuel quantity when almost full is very low on my
priority list.  I would certainly trade it any time for more accurate
measurement of the bottom 2 1/2 inches.  I think Mark was right - don't
worry about it - but the reason is that it just won't matter.  The fuel gage
will read, if you follow the procedure, almost full for the highest couple
of gallons and for the rest it will be a tiny bit more accurate that it
would have been otherwise.
