Hi Rick,
I have been closely associated with 2 Europas that I have owned.
The first was a classic mono wheel which I built from a kit purchased from
the factory in 1993. This had a fuel capacity from unusable to full of 81
litres.
I now own a TriGear XS Europa built from a kit bought in around 2001 and it
has a fuel capacity of only 64 litres. Not far short of 20 less???
MAY BE SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT?
Pete

Whilst replacing they'll lines on my Tri Gear and recalibrating the fuel
gauge I carefully measured the usable fuel using a (known accurate)
measuring jug. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it held 74.7 litres
usable. This is considerably more than placarded, and I was wondering if
anyone else has found the same?
Rick
