 Posted: Tue Nov 27, 2007 10:00 am Post subject: Yak fuel drain access |
 |
|
Good morning,
Since I've removed the 15 gallon aux belly fuel tank
from my Yak 52, I am now relegated to using the
standard fuel drain (I had been using an aftermarket
one on the belly tank). Two questions:
1. Is the drain that I have where you have to reach
up into the lower fuselage and turn a handle that has
tooth-like edge and fuel pours out like from a faucet
the standard fuel drain or can I somehow get one where
I can just press a fuel strainer into it and fuel
drains (like on a Cessna)?
2. Presently, a portion of the fuel line is exposed
under the fuselage. It is evident that there was once
some sort of cover plate, perhaps with an access door
for the fuel sump, that went there but it is long
gone. Any idea where I could get one of these?
Thanks,
John P. Graham

John,
What you have is the stock Yak 52 fuel sump drain. What you need is the two
halves of the cover that went over the stock fuel drain. Check with Roger
Shaddick. Since he installed the tank, he may still have the covers he
removed.
Dennis
