I am planning to buy JPI EDM 930. Any recommendations on that? Have a question regarding fuel senders: do I need to replace them? Does anyone have problems with EDM 930 fuel quantity reading? Thank you

I have the factory original fuel quantity indication system. Is there any adjustments that can be made to dial in the indicator to better match what is really in the tank? When my tanks are full (32 gallons a side) the indicators don't quite make it to the full mark. I know, it is just a nit but I would like for the full indication to more closely match actual. I also realize the best way to know fuel on board is with careful calculation, fuel used, fuel added.

I occasionally park my Ovation outside overnight at a non-secure airfield. Given the gap between the 30 gallon (each) scale of the external fuel gauges & the next known quantity (bottom of the fuel filler neck), it seems a significant amount of fuel could be drawn from the tanks without the pilots knowledge. My Shadin gives a very accurate fuel used/ remaining when referencing a known quantity at the start but it can't account for fuel theft. Has anyone come across a supplier for lockable fuel caps for the Ovation series, or is there another method for determining fuel quantity pre-flight for amounts between 30 & 45 gallons in each wing?
