Mark That Ball Then Plug That Hose
| I like to use a three-hose setup for my fuel tank; this makes filling up the plane easy because I never have to disconnect the line from the carburetor. At first I used a bolt to close the filling line after fueling, but it would always leak and make a mess. Then one day after playing nine holes I was looking around in the golf pro shop and noticed all the different golf ball markers. I purchased a few and found that they are perfect for plugging the filler fuel line. Now I have a great stopper for the fill line and no more messy drips.
