REFLECTOR: FUEL FEED & Vents--blinking warning

I have a question that may be related to venting.  At high altitude  (10,000 
or so) the sump low fuel warning light occasionally blinks on  and off. There 
is no other indication of low fuel, plenty in the mains  and no fuel 
starvation indications of any sort. 
 
This has happened only twice in the hours I have flown, and as soon as I  
return to a lower altitude there is no problem. 
 
The sump low fuel sensor is located in the front, top center of the tank,  
about 1 1/4" below the top in the position called for in the builders manual. I  
suppose that the higher nose attitude resulting from flight at this altitude 
may  result in this condition, but I would like to hear other thoughts.
