A more economical approach to increased fuel capacity- 337 is available where you can install 2 extra 8 gal coupe wing tanks out board of existing tanks with no other changes to fuel system except adding nonvented inb caps & vented caps(one with gage)outboard. Ted ps  Dick & Sophie enjoyed brkfst last SAt.good luck on your O200 conversion. --- Original Message ----- From: dneddinger To: Jason J Ellingson;tech@ercoupers.com Sent: 2/26/06 10:05:28 PM Subject: RE: [COUPERS-TECH] AOPA Ercoupe story ----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]----   --- Mary Lechner --- [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- EarthLink: The #1 provider of the Real Internet.   There is already a set of 15 gallon wing tanks available along with a STC.   DICK  NANCY  &  SOPHIE -------Original Message-------   From: Jason J Ellingson Date: 02/26/06 10:35:23 To: tech@ercoupers.com Subject: RE: [COUPERS-TECH] AOPA Ercoupe story   According to Glen Davis (owner of that ‘Coupe), the plane was owned by a guy in Alaska at one point.  As fuel isn’t available every 50 miles (like here in the lower 48) he got 337 approval for additional fuel tanks to be installed in the leading edge of the wings.  He gave me the details on capacity and such, but I’ll let him post it to the group. Considering my ‘coupe is a 1 person plane already (as I weigh a lot) and sucks down 6-7 gal/hr with the O-200, I wouldn’t mind seeing that 337 and ponder copying it.  I like to fly to St Paul, MN from here and would love to make it in one flight.   Yes, I have a good bladder ;) - Jason From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, February 26, 2006 8:43 AM To: tech@ercoupers.com; "<tech"@[EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [COUPERS-TECH] AOPA Ercoupe story   ----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]----     Did anyone notice that the Ercoupe shown in the AOPA article had two fuel tanks in each wing? I have never seen or heard of such a thing, has any one else?
