OUTFITTING THE FUSELAGE

FUEL TANK ASSEMBLY

1.

Gather the following items

(1) fuel tank
(1) rubber tank stopper
(1) clunk
(1) 3mm x 25mm screw
(1) cap washer large
(1) cap washer small
(1) 3mm x 40mm brass tube
(1) 3mm x 60mm brass tube
(1) silicone tube 4mm x 80mm
(2) silicone tube 5mm x 165mm

2.

Insert the 3mm screw through the center

hole in the large washer, through the

center hole in the rubber washer against

the large side, and screw the small wash-

er on the back side.

3.

Insert the brass tubes through two of the

holes. They should be arranged so as

the long one will be on the right side of

the plane and the short one on the left

side.
The tubes should extend out the front of

the cap 5/8”. Bend the long tube up at

about a 20 degree angle. This should be

adjusted so the end of the tube almost

touches the top of the tank when

installed.

4,

Install the 4mm silicone tube to the short

brass tube and install the clunk to the

other end of the silicone tube. This is the

fuel pickup and must be free to “flop”

around in the tank so it can pick up fuel in

any attitube.
