Judy, Do you have one? Does it work for you? Does it go on the tank or on the carb?

You will know when you have it: The cabin stinks like gasoline. Good luck with the electrically operated fuelstop. I have been unable to identify a suitable device, and if anybody on the list knows of one, please clue me in.

Title 33, Chapter I Sec. 183.568 Anti-siphon protection. Each fuel line from the fuel tank to the fuel inlet connection onthe carburetor must: (a) Be above the level of the tank top; or (b) Have an anti-siphon device or an electrically operated fuelstop valve There are safety regs about ventilation of the tank too. The fuel tank must be vented to the outside so keep it in the cockpit. Also, check with the A4 list to find out if your fuel pump can handle the extra hose.
