REFLECTOR: Fuel system install

[Jerry Teitsma]

I installed the fuel line in the tank as per directions but also installed a fuel filter on the engine side of the firewall, prior to the fuel pump.

Subject: REFLECTOR: Fuel system install 

Hi All 
I have a two part question for the group on fuel system installation.   First what is the general thought on the use of a fuel tank selector valve.   Are their advantages or a necessity for using one?   What are the pros and cons?   Second does anyone have suggestions for installing the fuel feed line and strainer in the tank?   The manual says to just microglass the line in place and use a screen around the inlet.   I would like to use a more robust method, I.E. bulkhead fitting.   Any input is appreciated. 
  Thanks 
Glenn Falkenberg
