My weights and balances calculations are quite far out due to miscalculation on fuel.
My SD seems to be using 8.2 lbs/USG and 1.0 kg/l, are these set by SD or are they user definable?

Apparent miscalculations often have their reason in not matching units for the entries done. With density fixed, you are not completely free in choosing which to use.
