<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The only problem with your setup, in my plane, I can't see my tank, its not on the CG, so without the open line to atmosphere, the overflow of a full tank can't go past the check valve, letting me know the tank is full. I can fix that with double dots, one for overflow and one for fill.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Ken,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>You've no doubt read some of the threads describing a tee in the line where one end goes to the tank vent, one end goes to the check valve, and one end goes to a fuel dot. That's what I'm doing. To fuel, you pull out the fuel dot which lets the tank vent act as a fuel overflow. when it's filled up, you put the dot back in. Pretty simple setup that works well as long as the check valve's pointing the right way.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial>The Smaragds you've seen me with the last two seasons both have a YS check valve on the vent line. The sole purpose is to prevent a mess if the vent line siphons. Never had any problems.</FONT></DIV>
