Re: Spring tension hose clamps
It is a new aluminum tank and fittings.
The hose fit seems good and I have to cut it off to remove it every time.
All new hose.
I put a new perfect fit clamp on and a normal hose clamp. Double clamped!
I have a low fuel light installed so the clear hose is not an issue.
All these steps improved the problem but after leaving it over night it still seeped out a little.
I finally epoxied the hose and flew a couple hours yesterday . I pulled the seat and checked the paper towel I wrapped around the fitting. No seepage but on most descents I still got a fuel smell. Why is that?
Now a new problem the Tach is no longer reading correctly? My research says they do go bad and I assume it is the original 2004. I ordered a new from Spruce. So I can go to Loch Haven next week.
I saw on here where changing all the lines to fuel injection lines stops the odor in descent?
Thanks for looking at my issue .It has been frustrating and I have gotten good at pulling the seat and about $20 in zip ties.
