Hi,

I want to use the Andair Gascolator (GAS375) and wonder if the Vans fuel filter is still required.

How many times do you need to have access to the tunnel? If I want to go with a center console the access will be rather difficult.

Best regards
Michael

My opinion.

YES. Keep the filter (I have gascolator also....).

Make whatever you do on the tunnel easy to remove.....you'll be in there more than you think.

Micheal, I have a center console as well. I think Scott Schmidt was the
1st to post his solution. (i.e a side tunnel access panel ). Most I've
seen have put them on the copilot side. I had to put mine on the pilot
side due to interference with a fuel return line.

Does the tunnel have no structural role at all?

Cutting access holes will not make it stronger. And I believe I'd have to show this a major modification from the original plans to the authorities.
