Default RE: fueling up


ORIGINAL: bkdavy

I've been using the Hanger 9 hand pump for 5 years now. Still pumping. I've also used the ''turkey baster'' bulbs, and they work fine.

I don't use a catch can or bottle. I simply use another length of fuel tubing that directs the vent back to the fuel jug. When the aircraft is full, excess fuel goes right back to the bottle. A few backward cranks to clear the lines, and no spillage. I also don't hve to worry about trying to pour the fuel from the catch can back into the bottle. I filter the fuel going into the plane so any crap that gets flushed into the bottle stays in the bottle.

Thats a good idea I might give this a try this week just need a length of fuel line
