![]() "Jim Macklin" wrote in message news:II7Tf.118045$QW2.26850@dukeread08... #2 Full tanks increase fuel pressure, a poor seal on the carb float needle valve will leak and fill the bowl, which then over-flows. The tanks have about 10-15% free space even when full to allow parking on non-level surfaces before the tank vents begin to drain. Hold the phone, here. You mean fuel tanks can build up pressure with functioning vent lines? Hummm. If it is a bad (plugged) vent, then I'm not going to fly it until *that* detail is fixed. -- Jim in NC |
