--> RV8-List message posted by: "Stephen J. Soule" <SSoule@pfclaw.com>
I sent this message to the RV list, but did not see it displayed, so here
goes again. I would like to know if anyone has used a banjo fitting for
attaching the fuel line from the engine driven pump to the Marvel
carburetor. With the heat muff on the exhaust pipe there isn't much room for
a 90 degree AN fitting at that location. I see that Aeroquip has a banjo
fitting that looks like it would work, but I would like to know if anyone
has experience in the real world with such a hookup.

Cy,
The fitting has to screw into the 1/4 pipe thread in the body of the
carburetor and accept a 3/8 inside diameter flexible hose. The AN816-6D in
the body of the carburetor does not provide sufficient clearance, even when
using a MS27224-6 type 90 degree flared fitting on the endof the flexible
hose. I tried a MS20822-6D in the carburetor with a straight fitting on the
end of the flexible hose, but the MS20822-6D would not "clock" properly when
tight, that is, would not point toward the engine driven fuel pump without
being too loose and leaking around the pipe threads.
I used banjo fittings on the Solex carburetors on an old sports car in the
1970's where clearance was an issue and never had trouble, although it was a
mystery to me why they never came loose.

--> RV8-List message posted by: "Garrison Sem" <chasm711@msn.com>
I am finishing the instrument panel and I am looking for an analog altitude
reminder, basically just a scratch pad to put assigned altitudes in. I have
seen units that look like a hobbs meter that you can turn the numbers with a
thumb wheel. Does anyone know of a source for these or a unit with similar
capabilities.
Thanks

I believe that the banjo fittings use straight threads and a different
thread count. Have you tried Loctite PST on the threads? You might be able
to clock the fitting and the PST will set up and seal.
