Fuel Load Reset to 100% All Tanks [resolved]

When I change the fuel load using the in-sim fuel/payload manager, the changes are not saved and all fuel tanks go to 100% after I press 'OK'.

Immediately after I make the changes I verify the fuel quantities I see the needle trending down before bounding back up a moment later.

P3D v4.5H2(or H3 whichever one is most recent)
KA 1.1.29

Did you Check you are not parked near a fuel pump ?
Try it again on the runway just to be sure.

That was the issue. I didn't know fuel pumps did that and didn't notice I was next to it.

Thank you!

I always use the P3D "Fuel and Payload" dialogue, even for re-fueling and change in Pax/Cargo between succeeding legs, and it's working perfectly fine.

No need to use MVAMS and/or to unload the sim!
