7/5/2012 Fuel Line and Fuel tank

Removed some cork from the fuel tank, set it in place.  Attched AN-6 fuel line.  Placed grommets in holes to protect fuel line.


I spent a lot of time thinking over whether I should put the fuel sender in the inboard end of the tank, or on the top of the inboard half of the tank.  Less likely to leak at the top, but easier to access at the end.  Zenith older planes and the AMD planes put it on top.  But the latest drawings and assembly guide and Homebuilt help DVD all show it in the end.  So I put it in the end with a lot of fuel lube to seal it.
