I am test flying a newly purchased Tri Q2. On rollout fuel started venting all
over the canopy, lots of fuel. It has a forward facing vent on top of the
header tank close to the canopy. The header tank guage showed about an inch
from being full. The main fuel tank cap is not vented. There is a quarter
turn shut off valve from the header to the main tank which seems to drain fuel
from header to main. It didn't seem to matter which way it was set. Also
didn't seem to matter whether the fuel pump was on or off. Any ideas on what
is causing this?
