the cap hanging on the cable, and flying through the prop is considered greater than flying
without a cap.
The main tank is installed behind the aft seat in the left hand side and has a capacity of 39
litres. Fuel level is indicated by a transparent sight line with markings and also by a fuel
quantity indicator in the cockpit.
As an option an additional tank with a capacity of 36 litres may be fitted on the right hand
side. In this case a crossover line connects both to ensure equal level. In order to top-off
tanks it is recommended to fill-up slowly and to allow flow levels to balance-out as the cross-
over flow rate is limited.
Both tanks are ventilated by a ventilation line above the tanks, downwards to the lower
engine cowl. Fuel hoses are made of fabric-reinforced rubber.
As an option, a low fuel sensor may be installed. The LOW FUEL warning light is triggered
as soon as 5 litres or less of useable fuel remain in the tank.
The fuel system versions differ with engine model, see schematics below.
