I used 1/4'' OD aluminum tubing.  (I have only one vent from the vacuum
breaker in the filler tube.)  The mesh is a little stainless wool, a bit
of 5 minute on it and then just pushed into the end of the tubing.

Hi Tom,

I plan the same run for my vent lines.  What termination did you put on
the
plastic tube (stainless tube provided by Europa or what?) & how did you
fit
mesh in?  Also, what type of mesh did you use?

Thanks

Hi John
My vents go into the top of the fuel filler.  Then another vent from
there
goes straight down, through the baggage shelf and exits out the slot for
the
flap drive.  It faces forward to get some ram air pressure and has some
mesh
in it so insects can't block it.
