Hi all out there.
Have been away for a while due to work obligations and am now baci to the most
favorite peoject. I purchased my kit from another builder with the cockpit
module
installed includeing fuel tank and controls of course. Having not done this
part of the construction, I find some things not shown in the manual and hope
someone out there can shed some light.
On the line out of the main tank side, there is a tee between the tank line and
the fuel site line. This tee has a six-inch hose on it with a 1/8" male
threaded
fitting. I suppose it would be for a drain, however, the original builder
had intended to fit the 914 engine and I am using the 912. I know that the
914 has two fuel pumps but the 912 install manual only deals with one and I thus
don't know how the second one is plumbed in. Does this tee from the fuel sight
line have anything to do with that?
I am also going to install an Andiar mini-gascolator. Where have others
installed
one in the fuel system and what should be used for a quick-drain from the
bottom of it. How about easy access to a quick drain for checking for water in
the fuel.
This forum is a god-send to those of us building in remote areas! Many
thanks!!!!
