I have been handpicked to go to Honduras to evaluate their one and only C-130A model. Apparently they have been flying the A/C without quantity and a few other problems. I have to evaluate the plane and provide them with an estimate of how much it will cost to fix it. The main problem I have right now is finding information on parts installed in "A" model wings, specifically quantity harnesses and probes. I imagine they won't be interchangeable with "H" models or newer. I am sure I will run into many more surprises the more I look into their tanks. Thanks for all the information you all have provided so far. I need to familiarize myself with the system as much as possible before I get there. All of your information will be helpful.

Hello all, I am a new member and need some help getting information regarding the fuel system on C-130A models. I am a fuel cell mechanic and have worked C-130's for 13 years but the earliest models I have worked are B models. I would like to get an idea of the major changes done from A models as well as specifics of the original system. Any help is appreciated. Thank you

Alright guys, a few weeks ago I posted a question about C-130A model fuel systems. I received quite a bit of information, thanks! Well, I am down here now and have had the chance to get on the bird and look around. They have a fuel quantity indication problem and I am hoping that atleast one of you knows of a place that carries the components they will need to fix their discrepancy, ie. probes, fuel density caps, fuel quantity relays. I am hoping that someone somewhere stockpiled a wharehouse full of A model parts somewhere.
Thanks again all.
