Default RE: Fueling problem

Hi Bruce This is Phil Botto alias Squire

Thanks for the response. I didn't get much help in Engines or ARFs so I posted here. It seems after reading these that I really have two practical choices to try - 1) do nothing and let the excess run out of the muffler which will probably work as the engine is at about a 225 degree angle putting the muffler right below and on the centerline, or 2) put a LONG pressure line in with a piece of brass tubing that I can get to so I can break the line while fueling. These options seem simple and I am big on KISS! The check valve and "T" fitting seems to be a lot of work and something else to fail. I bought a Dubro fueler but don't think I'll use it quite yet.

This plan that I'm assembling a Phoenix Decathlon and it is really shaping up nice.

Thanks for you help. Tell everyone down at the field hello from me.

Phil
