Post by Bruce B »

what is the best way to route fuel lines on a fully cowled plane so that you can still do a pinch test? i just drilled two holes and looped the fuel line through the holes.it works but isn't pretty. is there a better way? also,does it make any difference if you pinch the line before or after the needle valve?

Its kinda hard to see because of the pic quality, but we looped blue some fuel tubing up thru the cowl just behind engine head. We just pull it out some to be able to pinch it, and works well. This is one of my brothers 2548 birds with a clunk tank and the loop is between the tank and needle valve.
