CraigAll 3 of my tanks are ram air vnted. The header tank has a vent out the side of the fusealage and the wing tanks are out the bottoms of the wings with flared ends a piece of screen and then faired inn under the wing. The header vent is just out the side and faced foward and flared. no protection no fairing. I have no data to compare as it was built like this from the get go but I do know that my fuel pressure from the header tank (gravity feed) has never been below 8/10 of a pound even though that matamaticaly that should be impossiable given the height of the tank at low fuel level above the pressure sensor. This was just something that I had done when I was building my tanks and just thought it made sence. I haven't looked at the article that you referenced yet but I will just to see what someone else says.Joe Horton

Funny how things pop up.� I asked the question here a few days ago about having two fuel pickups and then came upon this article.� It addresses an issue with RH tanks in the PA22's but I think it has relevance to our KR's.� I actually had an elaborate venting scheme for my 4 fuel tanks but after reading this I am inclined to go the RAM air route, at leat on my mains.� Should make the fuel pumps job easier too.
