Fuel Tank Bushing

$1.00

That looks pretty convincing. Someone else suggested Dapco, which has the
same plugs. I e-mailed Dapco and they confirmed their product to be good for
this, including being Ethanol resilient. They are an OEM supplier so I don't
think they will do small quantities, but I have not asked yet.

Can you hog it out to the next size pipe thread and put a reducer
bushing in? Make sure you use a tapered pipe thread and do not
overtighten it. Make sure you use FLEXIBLE line from the tank to the
fuselage. Rigid tubing WILL eventually take the threts out of the poly
tank.
