tubing to the drains as per: Dennis Vories

Josok,
My fuel system piping is all 3/8@ alum tubing. I did essentially the
same as Steve, using Safiar drains as he, but was warned not to buy auto
parts unless the flaring cones were at 37deg. Most auto parts here and U.S.
(Weatherhead by name) are at 45deg for the bulk of fittings, but aviation I
believe are 37deg. The two are not compatible I am told. Weatherhead sell
37deg bits but you must confirm same................ I guess this is not a
problem if you are all flexible conduits.
FWIW
