Ercoupe Bulliten No.15 addresses this issue, I think - also Kim Flora's comments. Refers to the overflow line failure inside the tank, making the center tank fuel level too low ---- and how to correct ..
Points out that the overflow line can be adjusted Feul level shouold be betweeen 3/4 and 1" from the ---After filling the fuselage tank full, and letting it drain through the overflow, " At this tim ethe fuel level should be between 3/4" and 1 " below the bottom of the fuselage tank filler neck when measured from the rearmost part". " The level may be corrected by relocating the overflow line after loosening the union nut on the mounting flange and moving the line up or down as required to obtain the proper level. "A failure of the subject part would probably result in an immediate forced landing". This bulliten afffected Sn 2623 - 2994 - Ercoupe part # 415-48162.
