Default RE: engine shutting down on take off


ORIGINAL: Rodney

Check the length of the tube in the tank holding the clunk. If it is to long and lets the clunk touch the rear of the tank, you will get the result you are seeing. The cluck hits the back of the tank and shuts off the flow of the fuel.

Had same issues with one plane. Shortened the clunk line and all was good.
