specific weight of petrol is 1,12 so 4900l equals to approx. 4.375,00 kg.

Are you sure? Anyway, if specific weight of something is 1,12, 4900 liters of that can't weigh 4375 kg...
I used a value of 0,718, this is my source: http://www-static.shell.com/static/a..._100ll_pds.pdf

Also corrected a small error on previous post, wrote 2500 liters when I meant 3500. Doesn't affect the calculation, only a typo when writing the post.

I guess the standard German B4 Fuel is more like Avgas 80/87 so you can use even lower density figures, I think it was 690kg/m3

Ok, i stand corrected, AVGAS 80 has a specific weight of 0,73 - 0,78 kg/l that would indicate a weight of 3285 to 3510 kg.

Just a couple of bugs: The Manifold pressure gauge is non-functional in the Macchi 202 (series VII), and when the cockpit instrument lights are put on, the fuel gauge is overlayed by an image of another instrument.
