Fuel System v2.0

Re-making my fuel system. People running up to my airplane saying "you're leaking fuel".

Also have fuel leaking out the caps during flight, which leaves unsightly streaks.

Going to fix that...

I suspect that the inlet for the fuel vent is lower than it should be (at least in that tank).  I looked, but would need to use a borescope to see where the vent line that's built inside the tank leads to.

Interesting.  With no fuel return from engine, any idea the cause?
