Ira,

Does the tubing leading to your "between the seats level tube" 
incorporate the supplied flow restrictor?

I have installed the flow restrictor in tubing leading to the typical 
footwell sight gauge...still under construction so I've no performance 
data. I have also installed a "between the seats" sight gauge, using 
Acft Spruce rigid pipe (sold as a Quickie fuel sight gauge) thinking 
that it would be most useful during refueling since it is readily 
visable; however, since I've assumed that the flow restrictor would 
create a time lag between what's in the tank and what shows on the 
sight gauge, I've omitted it. And FWIW, I've also installed the Europa 
mod fuel gauge.

Fred
