    I am not finding in the instructions any measurements as to where the fuel line goes through the firewall. There is a drawing showing the parts needed but there are no written instructions for this. There is a statement as to drill a hole below the hole you just drilled for the return fuel line. Any info would be helpful.

    Eddie's photo is for the fuel injected Rotax. If you are installing a 912 ul/uls, here is how I did it:

    Yes, it looks like the fuel line goes through at the center side to side on the firewall. I do not have fuel injected but I would guess it should go through the same spot as it should line up with the fuel valve in the cockpit.

    Thanks

    Where is your fuel filter located Jim? I do not see one on the firewall

    My fuel filter is an inline one, located near the fuel pump inlet. That was the factory recommendation back in 2011 when I built mine. It is a NAPA auto parts fuel filter-easy to get and inexpensive. Gets changed at every annual.
