AVID Flyer Gas Caps

[lv2plyguitar 172]

My gas cap project turned out so nice I wanted to post it in the general box.   Zero fuel on the wings.  I ordered the caps from Aircraft spruce and they are bonded and screwed to the fiberglass tank.  The ram air was added because they are unvented.  I tapped and dyed the hole and tube.  Screwed it in with resin on the threads.  My gas necks were inboard next to the lexan.  That was a disaster so I moved them outboard where they should be.

I like the way the way they work with a little flush lever that pulls the inner and outer plates of the cap together to squeeze the O-ring between that seals it .
