Every time you fine tune the K factor, change it by only half of the

amount calculated above, and record the measurements here:

IMPORTANT: after adjusting K factors you must apply a correction
factor to the EDM indicated fuel USED and indicated fuel REMaining,
accordingly. We recommend you top the tanks and ‘Refuel’ the EDM to
eliminate this requirement.

initially entered into the EDM.
