For those of you with (or will have) sight gauges, if you make a strip of
paper on your computer (or whatever)  with a series of about 3/16th black
and white stripes, set at about a 45 degree angle, and slip it behind the
sight gauge, you will be able to see where the top of the fuel is even if
you can't see the fuel (a common occurrence). The difference in refraction
between air and fuel will clearly show the fuel level by causing the lines
to look more of less angled.

I've seen a demonstration of this and it really works! As it is now, I have
to study the gauge carefully to be able to discern the fuel level.
