RE: Engine quit while inverted
Like he said, bubbles are bad.
I've used the "sintered" brass dubro clunks to great effect to cut down bubbling on the fuel lines.
Remember though that in a nose down attitude with less that 1/2 of a tank, it becomes almost impossible to avoid bubbles as the fuel depletes.
Since the clunk is not permitted to "travel with the fuel" most planes have a tendancy of deadsticking on nose down aerobatics as the tank runs below 1/2.
