I like your content .. I Fly for AA and own a 182 I love working on it .: I can relate on your comment on embracing the suck when you have to figure how to get to things for maintenance
Plenty of bulb type fuel siphons on Amazon starting around $10 so you don’t have to risk inhaling fumes…. I don’t like siphons with the rattle starters in this application in case of knocking into the fuel senders but for other applications I find them to be great.
I might not have done a good job filming it, but I wired them IAW the JPI diagram that used the ground in the JPI harness and power from a 5 Amp circuit breaker. Very easy installation and very thorough installation instructions 10 out of 10 for yall's product.
You could drain the fuel by removing the hose to the carburetor, then put it into your can. You need to address fuel safety, and static discharge. No static grounds, vinyl hose and the gas can not on the ground. You also should not be using electrical tools around the fuel tank.
Why not just pull the main fuel line from the carburetor. Put hose in can, and you can use the fuel selector to drain one or both tanks at a time. Works well for high wing A/C ot so much for low wing unless you use the boost pump. I also check the fuel filters after I do this.
This was just faster. I should have had the foresight to start draining fuel your way first thing in the morning, but I got distracted by the fittings that were stuck.
@brycebuildsit when you open the fuel valve it's faster than you think. I'm doing a CEIS install in the next few weeks on a 182P. I watch you videos from time to time. You do a good job.
Hey Bryce, im in A&P school now and i was wondering, whats the best path to make high wages in GA? I know that major airlines pay thr big bucks the fastest, but im not sure if im cut out for overnights and holidays. Thanks!
Making a high wage in GA is tough, but if you can specialize in avionics or after you get an IA open your own shop you will do pretty well. Working for a manufacturer service center is also decent pay and benefits.
Then that works perfectly for me. Most of the aviation missions organizations work mostly out of the US on foreign soil like Africa, Asia etc. Well that were I intend to serve with my A&P license. I'm also busy with EASA license. I must say FAA A&P is so much better that EASA with the rules and freedom to be able to work as free. The modules are very similar to the FAA A&P handbooks. They all the same. I really do enjoy watching your videos. You come across as a true normal human being who really wants to assist individuals with information.
Nice to see in detail how the Cies senders got into the tank.

I have one, but I need to put a new hose on it. The fuel made the line so hard it won't bend, so it's hard to manipulate into the tank.
Use a ground near or on the JPI. The sender grounding of the sender body is for lightning protection only.

Corrosion is a powerful adhesive.
There are few things tighter than rusted screws and no amount of pb blast is going to keep a phillips tip for immediately rounding out the head.

@@brycebuildsit Got ya, thanks!
The drill
Don’t you love having to come behind somebody and fix their mistake?
Hi Bryce, can a foreigner take the A&P in Mexico?
Yes you can get an A&P outside the U.S. but only perform the duties of it in your country of origin
So I can only work with the A&P in South Africa only?
You can work as an A&P anywhere but only exercise the privileges of that A&P outside the U.S. sorry I worded that wrong the first ti.e

You do know I have 2 fuel siphons in my hangar in the left rear of the hangar by the cabinet don't you? 😁
Well now you tell me lol
