Hi Mark,

Yep, I don't like that idea at all even though my hero Tracy does it in
the Otter. Ed A put his on the engine side of the firewall and I didn't
like that answer either so I mounted them in the firewall recess that
RV's require for CS prop governor and oil filter. Put a SS lid on it so
that they are in their on cavity, there is a drain line to the underside
of the airplane. Believe that I would smell fuel if it were leaking there
because it is near the main tank vents and you can sure smell fuel if you
are blowing fuel thru one of the vents.
