I drilled a hole in the cap and run the float wire through that.--------Kevin PurteeNX899KPAustin/Georgetown, TXRead this topic online here:

I guess I thought that that would suck fuel out, being on the low pressure side...guessI was wrong!?Gary Boothe------Original Message------

Thanks Dan,Sorry we missed it, but our schedules just didn't work out.We do have a line on a corvair motor. We are supposed to go over and help my buddie'sDad tear down an old corvair, and he said we could have the engine. SoI suppose that's the next step.We are also still trying to decide what our best option for wood is. We could save money if we buy from this place in Madison. But we could save time, if we order from Aircraft Spruce. Seeing how it's alreadypre selected wood.Read this topic online here:
