Lynn,
...you get to read a lot of email! [Shocked]
I really don't want to get rid of my filters either. We are still only talking
about one filter between a wing tank and the header tank. Once the fuel is in
the header tank it should then benefit from the "suction" of the mechanical
pump.
My last two hurdles are removing the wing tank outlet fitting to check the finger
strainers and cutting the root rib on the wing so the fuel line doesn't have
to have a hump in it before descending down towards the header tank. Thanks
again for all your input...always appreciated!
