Hi,
I've used an additional VA-141 on each of my tanks for use as a return port; does anyone know what the correct size for an pipe plug fitting should be for this flange?
It seems I might not need the return fuel lines after all as it looks like Lycoming fitted FM-150 induction to my engine instead of the FM-300 I was expecting.
With many thanks in anticipation

I think but am not 100% sure, that you're looking for a 3/8" NPT plug.

Thanks to you both; Van's confirmed it is indeed 3/8" NPT - it's shown in the RV-14 instructions.
