Hi

I have a problem I believe is not uncommon ".After flight I find a stain al
ong the rear fuselage caused by fuel venting from the vent on top of the fu
selage. I have a fuel injected (not a Rotax ) classic mono with no sight ga
uge . I have one pipe from the tank to a vent on top the plane as per drawi
ngs. The return pipe for the pumps goes back to the port side of the tank. 
I am getting surges out of the breather pipe, I assumed this was just a dro
p of fuel in the breather pipe. I placed in the breather line, at the highe
st point a plastic fuel filter to hopefully stop a small surge. It does not
 work I am still getting fuel down the rear of the plane. Is this just over
 filling or am I missing something? Sorry if this has been addressed before
 but I don=99t read every mail


Roger
