Brief Description:  Fuel pmp vent/Sniffle Valve (passed 2000 hrs!)

-Passed 2000 hrs today. I started in Oct of '06. I estimate that I should be nearing completion this summer - hopefully with about 2300 hrs total. We'll see how close I am.

-Installed the fuel pump overflow drain per the plans except I didn't use the junky copper fitting on the pump with plastic line. I used an AN fitting and reinforced rubber hose. The exit part of the install was per plans.

-Figured out my routing for the sniffle valve. I put a short rubber hose on the nipple and then ran an aluminum line (thick walled) back to the air outlet. It will adel clamp to the oil vent exit line.
