I am thinking about adding a one-hour reserve fuel tank and want to find a source for a fuel line quick disconnect that will 'seal' off the line and the opposite side of the connection when it is removed. If someone can point me to a manufacturer's part number I'd appreciate it.

I take it that this is an experimental? Last time I looked, Wal-Mart did not have a PMA/TSO department. ;)

That's why my parts all come from Home Depot or Lowe's.

i kinda figgerd that's what the person was asking about, since this IS the EXPERIMENTAL aircraft association forum, and any aux tank in a certificated aircraft would have all the parts called out in the STC. guess that was kinda presumptious of me.
