7. Install the fuel tank in the airframe. Use only 1/8" [3.175 mm]

gasoline-safe fuel lines and a gasoline safe fuel tank stopper. One
line should go to the carburetor and the other is to be used as a

vent (a vent line is simply an open ended fuel line from the fuel

tank which exits the engine compartment or the fuselage; most

vent lines exit at the bottom of the fi rewall).You can fi ll the tank

by using the carburetor line as fi ll line if you have access to it or
install a third line to be used as fi ll line. Installing a third line is
the cleanest and easiest way to add fuel. An alternative fueling set
up is a 2-line system with a T-fi tting approved for gasoline use. Be

sure to use a fi ller plug with either a 2 line or 3 line set-up.
