Field notes

What this check can and cannot establish

  1. 01

    A printed truck-meter ticket is the transaction record. A tank reading is an independent planning check, not a replacement for a certified delivery meter.

  2. 02

    Stick readings create a narrower estimate than coarse float-gauge fractions. Tank tilt, reading technique, chart precision, and fuel movement widen the result.

  3. 03

    The result identifies consistency or a reason to recheck the model, orientation, readings, and ticket. It does not accuse a supplier or prove a measurement violation.

  4. 04

    Tank Passport entries remain in localStorage on this device and never include an address or detailed values in analytics.

Delivery / 05

Cross-check one delivery

Use the same confirmed tank before and after delivery. Let the fuel settle before the after reading and keep the printed meter ticket.

  3. 03 Compare ticket

A clean stick depth offers a narrower planning range. Do not open or probe a tank when a leak or unsafe condition is suspected.

    Route-specific question

    One distinction that matters

    Does a difference mean the delivery ticket is wrong?

    No. The tank estimate can differ because of a coarse gauge, an incorrect tank match, tank tilt, reading timing, or measurement technique. Recheck those facts and use the printed delivery ticket when contacting the supplier.

    Why is the expected amount a range?

    The range combines reading resolution with the manufacturer chart's stated precision. It is intentionally wider for fraction-gauge readings than for careful stick depths.

    Where is my Tank Passport stored?

    Only in this browser's localStorage. It has no account, address, server sync, or public URL. Clearing browser storage or using the clear-history control removes it.
