    While testing the binding I created for the emergency power lever, to see the response to the lever I manually failed the fuel control unit. This removed all the fuel from both tanks except for the unusable 2 gallons in each.

    This happens almost immediately and will still happen even with the engine off. Having a fuel controller failure and the condition lever in anything other than cutoff will empty any connected fuel tank. Tanks set to Off are unaffected, which doesn't help resolve the situation but may point to a cause.

      Unfortunately, I am unable to reproduce this. I said to myself, "what?!" when I read your report, since I'm really not sure how that would be possible. If you really think you're seeing this, you can test whether it has anything to do with my code by removing a section of my XML (since I know you are well acquainted with modifying my aircraft). Look for the block of code commented Fuel Crossfeed Logic, and just remove it to test. That's the only place where the fuel level of the aircraft is modified after loading.

      EDIT: Oh, I assume you were triggering the failure using the HTML events. I was able to reproduce that. Unfortunately..... that is functionally identical in my code as triggering the event via the tablet, so it seems we have an Asobo anomaly on our hands, at least to the best of my estimation. I was able to reproduce this only once at the beginning of the session.
