REFLECTOR: fuel lines

[Keith Hallsten]

Yes, I used a stainless steel strainer screen, cut in half (after removing
the screen from the frame) so there was one for each tank.  As I recall, I
got an excellent price in the aviation section of Wal-Mart.  I shaped a
"flange" around the perimeter to fit snugly against the inside wall of the
tank, then embedded that flange in the second coat of Jeffco 9700 in the
strake tank.  There were a few gaps larger than the screen mesh, so I filled
those with a third coat of Jeffco.  A bit of a hassle, but it ended up
looking good.

All this talk about vents,
here's a fuel line question...

Whats the recomended covering for the fuel line
inside the strake?
The version manual that I have sugests the screen from a 
kitchen stainer.
Ok, I guess..
Whats everybody else use?
