Fuel gauge/valve combo

Post by danoliver »

I’m working on my fuel tank and am planning on combining the fuel guage and outlet into one fitting. Does anybody out there see any potential issues with this set up?

here is the placement of my tank fittings and have the curtiss drain valve in the rear of the tank for water as aircraft is at rest.
