    Default fuel sensor question

    Hi, I need advise, hopefully you can help me out:
    yesterday I fulfilled the fuel tests. I have only one tank. All went reasonable (apart from one thing, but I have to sort things out - I might come back to this, later), but:
    In the header tank (molded type, behind pass. seat) is a low-fuel sensor (Kitfox-type, black, per manual).
    With some 10 liters fuel in the main tank there keeps some 6-10 mm air in the header tank. Result of this is, that the low-fuel sensor is not fully 'under water', and thus the low-fuel light blickers on & off with movements of the plane...
    The vent line had some 20cm of fuel in it.

    What can I do?
    Any advise will be highly appreciated!!
