    Fuel draining from under left wing

    Phenom 300e: Has anyone noticed a minor fuel leak / vent / drain from under the left wing after fueling to nearly full (>4700 lbs)? I’ve noticed less than a cup of fuel will occasionally drain from under the left wing overnight. Aircraft is parked on level ground inside a hangar. This has happened during the summer (~90 F) and into fall (~70 F). Thanks.

    I had a similar issue in the belly collector tank. It was a quick fix to replace the oring. Wait until your fuel level is low, pump the fuel into the other wing tank using the transfer pump, pop the tank access panel and replace the oring.

    Not surprising if you're parking overnight with full tanks. It will most likely push out the vent with expansion or being moved around.
