The fuel
vent line on most Cessna single engine aircraft attaches to a
check valve inside the tank to prevent fuel from flowing out of the
vent line, but this valve has a weep hole that allows some fuel to
pass to prevent pressurization of the fuel tanks. Unfortunately,
this weep hole is much lower than the fuel level of a full tank.
Fuel will continuously leak out of the vent line until the fuel
level is below the weep hole. With the original vent line, you
cannot fill the tanks without wasting a lot of fuel.
The
Cessna heritage aircraft also have a tank interconnect vent line
that allows fuel from both tanks to leak out of the vent. When
parked on an unlevel surface, the fuel loss from these aircraft may
be many gallons. The redesigned vent line features a unique
hump that rises above the top of the tank. Some fuel can still
escape through the weep hole and out the vent to prevent
pressurization of the fuel tanks, however, fuel will stop leaking
once the pressure is relieved, and the tanks will remain full.
Convenient Kits with a new connection hose and rubber grommet
are also available where applicable. Just add a "K" suffix to the
part number.
