    1969 GCBC Uneven fuel burn

    I recently purchased a 1969 Citabria GCBC. I have only flown it for a couple hours. The Right tank does not seem to feed even with the left tank. For example, the last time I flew for an hour and the left tank took 5 gallons and the right tank took 2 gallons. Do I have a potential problem?
