Section 8: Fuel Tank Installation
Step1. Skip this section if you are using an electric
motor. The fuel tank can be assembled as a two line
system consisting of a vent (pressure) line to the
muffler and a carburetor line. Filling and emptying
of the tank would need to be done through the
carburetor line, or an optional fuel fill valve. The
tank can also be assembled as a three line system
having a vent line, carburetor line, and fill line. If
install a fill line, puncture the top of the stopper
above the sealed off fuel tube hole. The fill and
carburetor lines should extend out 13mm beyond
the stopper and the vent line should be bent
upwards and left uncut. With the tubes installed in
the stopper, the stopper plates loosely in place with
the 3mmx25mm screw to hold the assembly
together.
12 mm
Step2. Fit the stopper assembly into the tank with
the vent line pointing toward the top of the tank,
but not touching. The fuel tubing and clunks (fuel
pickup) on the carburetor and fill lines should
almost reach the back of the tank but not touch.
The clunks must be able to move freely inside the
tank when assembled. Adjust the length of the fuel
tubing accordingly. When satisfied, tighten the
PM3x25mm screw in the stopper to secure it in
place (do not over-tighten). Mark the side of the
tank that must face up when installed in the plane.
We also suggest marking the tubes in the stopper.
Step3. Insert the tank into the fuselage with the
correct side facing up. The fuel tubing should be
routed through the hole in the center of the
firewall.
