Fueling
« on: February 27, 2011, 07:03:34 pm »

I have bought a second hand huntsman with a Glow engine. The fuel tank has appears to be fueled via a small fitting on the deck of the boat. My question is can anybody give me some advice on how to get fuel into the tank? I have bought a fuel filler bottle but the tube is far too big.
Thanks

you would usually use a hand crank pump

the feed comes from your nitro container then a tube to the tank

Without a picture this is only a guess. Has your boat got the Aircraft type filler.This is a two piece set up. One piece goes on model.
The other piece fits on filling hose. Enabling coupling and uncoupling as req.I use this system on my Helicopter to fill and drain after
