Fuel System Preflight Procedure:
The fuel system should be drained daily prior to first flight and after refueling to
avoid the accumulation of water or sediment. Each fuel tank is equipped with an
individual quick drain located at the lower inboard rear corner of the tank. The fuel
strainer and a system quick drain valve are located in the fuselage at the lowest point
of the fuel system. It is important that the fuel system be drained in the following
manner:
a.
Drain each tank through its individual quick drain located at the lower
inboard rear corner of the tank, making sure that enough fuel has been
drained to insure that all water and sediment is removed.
b. Place a container under the fuel sump drain outlet, which is located under
the fuselage
c. Drain the fuel strainer by pressing down on the lever located on the right
hand side of the cabin below the forward edge of the rear seat. The fuel
selector must be positioned in the following sequence: off position, left tip,
left main, right main, and right tip while draining the strainer to insure that
the fuel lines between each tank outlet and fuel strainer are drained as well
as the strainer. When the fuel tanks are full, it will take approximately l1
seconds to drain all the fuel in one of the lines between a tip tank and the
fuel strainer and approximately six seconds to drain all the fuel in one of
the lines from a main tank to the fuel strainer. When the fuel tanks are less
than full, it will take a few seconds longer.
