Has anyone used or are currently using fuel foam in their seat tanks or regular fuel cells to prevent sloshing of fuel?? Seems like it would be beneficial if you like cranking and banking to prevent a lack of fuel and possible engine sputtering or anything likewise. |

Don't care for it. When moisture gets in it's hell to drain it & interfears with capacitence fuel measuring systems.Some foams break down & FOD the filters & lines. For less than 15 gallons don't even bother as seat tanks useuly have shapes that keep the fuel at the pick up anyway. |

It seems as if it is not a wise idea for gyro's or aircraft unless like you said it is for larger volumes of fuel. Thankx for the input. I will not be using it just wanted some info. |
