For anyone running a variable pitch prop, and a mechanical manifold 

pressure gauge, what do you use as a fuel separator in the line from 

the carb(s) to the instrument?



I've got a 912 with an Ivoprop inflight adjustable, and have a 

plastic line coming off a port on the balance tube between the two carbs.



I had a little plastic gadget installed in the line but it eventually 

broke, and I don't know where it was from. I tried a small fuel 

filter but the MP gauge just starts filling up with fuel. I might try 

to build something -- basically a tiny bottle with an in and out hose 

through the lid on top would likely do. I recall someone on the list 

built something like that more than a decade back.
