The revised traveling countersink list is now:
8 ) Don
9) Fred
10) Pascal
Then back to me (hopefully someday I'll have a canopy) since John has abdicated
his parental rights!
Let me know if others want in on this -- it still works really well, may be getting
duller than new, but then I have nothing to compare it to.

| Subject: | Re: Leak Proofing the Fuel Sender |
Patrick,
By chance, I happen to have done the Van's service bulletin on my RV-7A last weekend
that applies a safety wire to the fuel pickup in each tank. To do this
one has to remove the fuel tank access plates, which are essentially identical
to the ones on the inboard tank rib of the RV-10. I had done a little 'randomized'
experiment by using Van's cork gasket on one side, sealed with ProSeal,
and on the other side I just used ProSeal without any cork gasket, as was recommended
by Gary Sobek, my Tech Counselor at the time. The -7A is a bit over
three years old, and here is what I can report: both the ProSeal-only and the
ProSeal-applied to cork gasket work fine to hold the fuel in the tank with no
leaks. Removing the side with the cork gasket was much easier, since the cork
is soft and a putty knife can be slipped in between the pieces and the cover
plate pried away and popped loose without much difficulty. The ProSeal only
side was quite a bit more difficult to break loose, and required sliding a single
edge razor blade between the bonded surfaces most of the way around the circumference
of the cover plate. However, when it came loose it was somewhat easier
to clean up using a razor blade as a scraper combined with MEK.
So the decision to use a gasket or not really comes down to ease of future maintenance.
Either way keeps the fuel in the tank.
Hope this helps,
-Dan Masys

Patrick,
By chance, I happen to have done the Van's service bulletin on my RV-7A
last weekend that applies a safety wire to the fuel pickup in each tank.
To do this one has to remove the fuel tank access plates, which are
essentially identical to the ones on the inboard tank rib of the RV-10.
I had done a little 'randomized' experiment by using Van's cork gasket

since the cork is soft and a putty knife can be slipped in between the
pieces and the cover plate pried away and popped loose without much
difficulty. The ProSeal only side was quite a bit more difficult to
break loose, !
and required sliding a single edge razor blade between the bonded
surfaces most of the way around the circumference of the cover plate.
However, when it came loose it was somewhat easier to clean up using a

So the decision to use a gasket or not really comes down to ease of
