This is a general low wing question, and tho I've pinged my builders group, just wanted to see how you guys do this.
In doing my fuel plumbing for the Mustang2 (a non-EFI setup), I discovered two vent references I wasnt aware of both out of FAA-H-8083-31 Ch14. One says that fuel tanks have to have two vents (page2); the other says if tanks are y-piped together, their vents must be interconnected.
So just talking about wing tanks only (not header tank installs) my questions are:
1. Do the VANs kits run two separate vents for your wings tanks?
2. If you interconnect vents, does that fulfill the 2 vent rule above?
3. Do you need to interconnect your wing tank vents if you are running a fuel selector with "L,R Both" positions?
FWIW I've got Usher flush fuel caps which are unvented, hence the questions.
Thanks for any wisdom.
