flight school installing an autofuel tank

Is that a common practice? where I fly remote fuel reimbursement is
what you actually paid. You attach the fuel receipt to your statement
and simply deduct it from your bottom line price.

It's probably common club practice (it is in our club - we get
reimbursed at the rate at our home base). FBOs tend to reimburse on
actual costs. I guess it's simpler accounting and a different pilot set.

Reimbursing seems the logical way to do it. One would assume that wet rate
is based on the home fuel cost not some random number. By this same logic
though if home fuel cost is $4.00 and you are away and pay $3.80 you should
still be reimbursed for $4.00.

This is correct. It's like an owner, who gets a bargain at $3.80 and a
bummer at $4.50.
