Just a general question....I fly a 1967 PA28-140. When flying I try to maintain an equal weight in the wing fuel tanks by switching from left to right and right to left as required. I notice, however, in level flight with, I might add, the ball centered my yoke is always canted slightly left a few degrees. If I level the yoke the aircraft banks right. I'm not sure if this means the rigging is out of whack but on the left aileron there is a trim tab.

Can this problem be corrected simply by adjusting the trim tab?
