Hey guys,
Since I didn't build my airplane, I was just wondering how the easiest way would be to pull a new piece of tubing to the pitot tube. Seems I have a small leak somewhere from the pitot tube to the wing root. I would like to pull new tubing. The existing setup, looking from the inspection panel next to the pitot tube, looks like a piece of 1/4" metal tubing curving into the first wing bay. I can't feel the end of the metal tubing to determine how (or where) it turns into plastic tubing. I just know when it gets into the wing root, it's plastic. Whew......that's a long winded question. Any help appreciated.
