How do I keep contaminants out of my Fuel System?

The fuel selector valve works in un-screened fuel. Contaminated fuel can cause selector valve seal damage. When fueling from possibly contaminated sources, we recommend using a micro-screened funnel, such as Mr. Funnel.

When should I replace or service my Fuel Valve?

The most common indication of external fuel valve leaks is the smell of avgas in the cabin. Most valves are located under the cabin floor. Fuel stain on the valve and drain plug, drain valve, or on the belly of the aircraft can also indicate external leakage.

Internal leaks are detected when the fuel is turned off and fuel continues to drip during fuel system maintenance. Inner port leakage will allow fuel from one tank to leak into another fuel tank. This type of leak is difficult to detect. Fuel transfer from one tank to another with the fuel valve selected to one tank will only indicate inner-port leakage. An extended period of time is needed to detect this type of leak.

Generally, if internal leakage is detected during service on the fuel system, it is likely there is also inner-port leakage.
