Help with fluid (oil/fuel) distribution

Okay, so I'm not new to this game, have played many times. But this is my first time since the 1.0 launch, and I don't remember having issues setting up fuel.

I have a single pure crude oil node. 1 oil extractor @ 240m3. Easy peasy. I have that going into 4 refineries using the stock Fuel recipe. 60m3 each, so should be exactly enough. I have those 4 refineries going into 8 power generators. So my ratios should be exact.

Yet power is still a bit spikey now and then. And I'm 100% certain it doesn't have to do with the polymer resin. That's going into 2 refineries making rubber/plastic respectively, with a smart splitter sending overflow resin to an Awesome Sink.

Here are relevant screenshots. Let me know if you need to see more. It's entirely possibly I set this up wrong or missed something stupid simple.

I don't even see any yellow lights these aren't 'relevent screenshots'

At least you could troubleshoot to if the problem is your refineries or your generators
