Adding fuel return fitting
Posted on November 7, 2011 at 7:39am 1 Comment 0 Likes
I'm building the wings on my 650 and the fuel return fitting in on the outboard end of the tank, I talked with Zenith and they said something about that end is better to prevent condensation from getting into the tank from the return line???
Anyway, instead of running a long fuel return line outboard to the next lightening hole I'm considering welding a return fitting in the upper inboard end of my tanks.
Has anyone else done this or is there any reason I shouldn't do…
