Just had a case of my clunk doubling back on itself which led to three deadsticks in as many flights. Now I have the tank and engine out for a general clean up etc.
To avoid the clunk doubling back would it be OK to replace most of the in-tank fuel line with a piece of alloy tube? The tube would attach to the clunk and tank via short pieces of fuel tubing. I figure this will allow the clunk to fall about but not double back on itself.
Is this idea feasible or does it have some drawbacks I haven't envisaged.
