Hello everyone,
I have read that the x air Hanuman comes with two different
types/colours of fuel tanks - one that is capable of running avgas
and MoGas with ethanol (yellow-ish tan coloured tank), while the
other white-clear tank only accepts avgas. Please correct me if
I'm wrong.???? I have not heard this ???
Anyway, I have the yellow-tan tank that can accept both grades if
fuel. I don't know if the above information is irrelevant, but
after 150hrs of fuel tank use (14yrs since new), I am noticing
flakes from the material of the fuel tank.
The only fuel that has been run in this plane is 100LL.?
I notice the fuel filter trapping these particles but why is this
happening ????? The resin is leaching
(being eaten) away by the fuel additives from the fibreglass and
the fibres are breaking off, this is your "debris" most probaby
