Subject: Allegro-List: Fuel Tank Issues

Has anyone else experienced large black particles clogging their fuel 
draining valve?    I suspect these particles may be a deteriorating fuel tank lining.

 When I check my fuel during my pre-flight, many times the valve on the 
plane's belly will drip until I remove the thing completely and let a little fuel

out into a bucket.  There are usually quite a few large (1/4'' square) 
particles along with some black grit.

I use the same gas station to fill both my planes and have no problem with 
the other one.  B-Bar-D in North Carolina tells me I'm the only one complaining

of this.  Could this problem be unique to a certain batch of airplanes?  My 
kit was delivered in June of 2006.

Any others having this experience?????

Dale Hackworth
