| Subject: | Wing Root Fuel Filters |
Hi
I have had a few PMs asking for pix of my wing root fuel filters. See the pix below.
Also, here is a link to the filters I used: https://www.summitracing.com/int/parts/ear-230206erl/overview/
There is one in each wing root so that there is redundancy. Also, as the filters
are light, I didn't tie them off to anything else. They seem quite happy inline
with the -6 al tubing.
Cheers
Les

Hi
The vibration question is one that I considered. The filter is very light and so
weight is not really a factor. The bends in the tubing allow movement so that
should be okay. Between the B-Nut / filter / B-Nut there is nothing for vibration
to affect.
I don't really see how the filter is that much different from an install without
the filter. At least from a vibration perspective.
Cheers
Les

My filter is in the tunnel, plumbed and sealed. There hasn't been any
fuel or contamination in it (still building). I don't think it's wise
to remove it and possibly alter the integrity of the system. I'll just
add the filters in the wing root and know I have a second filter for
fuel to pass through.

Les,
what was the reasoning for going with the 85 micron vs the 35 micron?

Did you weigh the fuel filters empty or with fuel in them?

Thanks all, we've had a pretty busy streak for over a year now, not slowing d
own much from finishing the RV 14, and then rolling right into all sorts of f
light training. We haven't really even done any vacations to speak of even f
or this time period. But now Danielle is flying, and it's time to start slow
ing down a little and enjoying the time. We're about to head out on a vacat
ion where she can do a whole lot of the piloting. Between her and Andrea, I d
on't know that I'll even have a chance to fly the airplane. Not that I'd be
disappointed in that, because I really enjoy seeing someone else learn and b
ecome competent.
The local newspaper decided to do the article, but I'm really surprised, I d
idn't realize that it would be picked up on the AP by any other news outlets
. That really surprised me. There is one thing else coming down the road th
at should be interesting, and that is I believe there may be a similar artic
le in the magazine "Aviation for girls", which is put out by the women in av
iation organization. I really believe that one of the biggest problems that
we face as pilots is a lack of new pilot starts coming into our activity. S
o I will do anything I can to show that Aviation is fun. What makes it even m
ore fun is that it is a girl doing this. Maybe that sound sexist, but we nee
d everybody to think that they may enjoy flying airplanes, not just men like
95% of us. I really think that the biggest problem that we face in getting
new pilots is a lack of passion, of course along with the lack of money, bu
t I think we can fix the passion part easy enough. We just need to get peopl
e to put down their phones, tablets, and game consoles long enough to go out
and see what is in the world.
Hoping to see lots of you a OSH again this year!
Tim

You are quite right about the original location and the filters being attached
to the floor.
All I can say is the filters / location / setup works for me. The tunnel location
is difficult to access while the roots are easy to access. That makes more
frequent checks / cleaning easier and therefore (IMHO) more likely.
Obviously I like my setup, otherwise I wouldn't do it this way. Others may not.
Cheers
