Thought I'd try to open a discussion here about gascolator install on the RV14 and 14A. AHHHHH before a bunch of you start a flame war, the reason for this is our Canadian brothers and some others are required by their regulations to have a gascolator.
The design of the firewall/tunnel, fuel penetration of the 14 & 14A doesnt really lend itself to a great spot fro a gascolator location. Perhaps Scott or Rian can chime in here with there thoughts. I've done alittle checking around on this. Actually it started with a RV7, then it occurred to me that the 14 might have an issue with this. Since the 14 and 14A is now probably the fastest moving kit that Vans sells (?), it might be a good idea to address this.
IDEAS?? Especially from those of you that have flying 14's and 14A's.
