Fuel flow test at end of build

Post by Yawhoo1 »

Decided to do fuel flow test of my work, as recommended in the EAA Flight Test Manual. Put 4 gallons of fuel in the right wing tank and expected it to flow wing tank to header tank to filter. I had no flow. Found a dirt dauber had blocked the tank fitting. I opened it up a little with an air hose, but I ended up having to clean it manually. That nest was like cellophane.
