Attach the fuel pickup line to one of the

straight tubes.

Attach the clunk to the other end.

Fit assembly into the tank and adjust the

length of the pickup line so the clunk is about

1/4” off the bottom of the tank when held ver-

tically.

Be careful and don’t over tighten as you can split

the tank.

Mark the lines so you can identify the vent, fill

The two rails can be glued the the fuselage

The tank mount can be slid to the rear of the

compartment and glued in place to get the

tank closer to the CG. You will need an engine

with a fuel pump to move the tank to the rear

position.

Install the tank with the cap through the hole in

the firewall and sitting in the cradle in the rear.

Put a thin piece of foam under the tank in the

rear cradle and hold tank in place with rubber

Install fuel tubing (not supplied) between the

fuel pickup line and the carb.

Route the fill line and vent tube out the bottom

of the cowl.

The fill line will have to be plugged, the vent

line must be left open.
