Warren Starkebaum flew over to KSGS in his RV-7 for an inspection of the powerplant kit and then I had an eye exam to replace the prescription glasses I stepped on the other day and with both out of the way, I started making some of the fuel filter runs as called out in Section 27.

Both came out fine and maybe I won't need that ATO-035x3/8 I ordered. We'll see.

I do have to contact Van's to see if there's a mistake in the labeling of figure 3 in page 11 of Section 27.

It seems to me they've reversed the prefilter end and fuel pump end labels as the prefilter sits inboard of the connection for the fuel pump and, hence, should have the shorter run. Reversing it and it fit perfectly. Pictures attached show what happens if you install according to the instructions.

Will confirm.
