Hi Matt,

Welcome to the list :)

Forgive me if this is a bit obvious, but the first two things I
would check are whether the clunk is stuck forward and also check the
clunk line itself for holes.  I've seen the 1/2 tank symptom all the
time in combat planes for the aforementioned two reasons - and they
regularly make rather abrupt "landings" (for sufficiently broad
definitions of landing...)
