I had to remove both fuel senders and reseal so am testing for integrity. The instructions for testing with a manometer are saying either 2 to 3 inches diff in water levels or 2 feet 3 inches, can't tell which. Before bothering Van's and displaying my ignorance anyone here know the answer for sure? I'd rather not blow my tanks apart, ya know...
Thanks all,
Jerry
Oh, BTW... I would never, repeat NEVER use the supplied rubber gaskets again.
I could not figure out why I'd never get a drip on the hangar floor but mysterious fuel streaks down the belly. My hangar mate pointed out that at speed the fuel vents can slightly pressurize the tanks. Fact or fiction? You decide. I took senders out, slathered proseal and replaced. Hopefully fixed.
