I'm trying to add the CS C-130 to an addon platform I am building, which uses SimConnect to set fuel loads (and eventually payloads). I've found though that "Tank No. 1" and "Tank No. 4" don't seem to have any representation in the documented simvars in SimConnect. I would have assumed them to be the "FUEL TANK LEFT MAIN" and "FUEL TANK RIGHT MAIN" values, but those are not implemented, it seems. Am I missing something? Are these handled by a different simvar? Is it a bug in the addon?

The C130 uses a fuel system, which is represented by different simvars.
See variables starting with FUELSYSTEM in the SDK documentation.
Regarding fuel tanks, see FUELSYSTEM TANK QUANTITY:INDEX, replacing INDEX with the desired tank index.

Tank indices:
1: TANK NO.1
2: TANK NO.2
3: LEFT AUXILIARY
4: LEFT EXTERNAL
5: RIGHT_EXTERNAL
6: RIGHT AUXILIARY
7: TANK NO.3
8: TANK NO.4

Tank/pump/valve indices can be found in the [FUEL_SYSTEM] section of the
flight_model.cfg

Following simvars may also be useful:
FUELSYSTEM TANK TOTAL QUANTITY:INDEX
FUELSYSTEM TANK WEIGHT:INDEX
FUELSYSTEM TANK LEVEL:INDEX
